Twin Lakes

Time to move on as we have stayed in Frisco for a whole week but we didn’t move very far.  Just south of Leadville is a San Juan National Forest campground on Twin Lakes and near the town of Twin Lakes. The lake is a beautiful blue and very clear and the surrounding mountains are magnificent.  The Aspen are starting to change creating pockets of gold and fiery red on the mountain sides.

We stopped for lunch in Leadville and enjoyed a stroll along the main street.  I popped into a nice little gift shop and met the owner who knows a friend of mine in Sedalia!  She is sort-of related on her ex-husband’s side of the family.  It is always exciting to meet people this way.

We rode our bikes around the campground then jumped into the car to go into Twin Lakes and have a drink at the Twin Lakes Inn and Restaurant.  According to John’s restaurant app, this is a 4-star, fine dining establishment.  We may have to try it our if we stay here long enough.
