The weather is still not cooperating, with over 50% chance of rain today, so we elected to take some easy roads and enjoy the local scenery. We drove just north of Ridgeway and drove down Owl Creek Road eastward. There were some beautiful places to stop and enjoy the snow topped mountains amidst the gold Aspen. The sun shown for most of the morning making for some awesome photo opportunities.
We stopped for lunch at Fish Creek Reservoir. The lake is very low but we enjoyed the pine smells and quiet serenity of the area. Just as we finished lunch, the rain started and continued for the rest of the day and into the night.
I decided this would be a good evening to dine out as a group and after some CB radio communications it was agreed that I would try to find a restaurant in Ouray that could accommodate 26 people. The first place I called, Western Hotel, agreed to serve us, so after getting everyone's order we were set for an evening of good food and companionship. They did a good job of serving us good food but they struggled getting us checked out.
