Up up and away!

 What shall we have for this week's Sepia Saturday?

Alan suggests something to do with Air...flying specifically!



Sorry to not have nice old photos this time!


All these photos are from the internet. Here the Durango Balloon Fest is showing it's proximity to the Durango-Silverton narrow gauge railroad just below. 


The straight highway is US 550 probably. You can see several balloons being inflated.



These are the white mountain peaks I see from my windows, I think!


There comes the train from another view!



Trimble and Hermosa are along the highway, but the river is quite far from it in this area. There is however the Dalton Ranch Golf Club & The Club. Is this the right site? However it's an excellent view of the area where my family hopes to stay at a B&B at the end of December when they visit! The Durango Hot Springs has the red pointer!

If we consciously remind ourselves of our blessings, it should become harder to take them for granted and adapt to them.
