Aspen-Around Town.

 A few shots I took around town during the weekend. I must say that if you take all the wealth out of the mix, Aspen is an incredibly charming town. Unlike some of the other ski resorts, it has fiercely maintained a small town feel with very few things changing throughout the years. They are very oriented to community and are proud of their history. The money that floats in and out (seasonally) influences parts of it but, surprisingly, many components of the town are quintessentially 'small mountain town' characteristics. I loved that about it. :)

busy outdoor restaurant patios

beautiful kilim pillows at the farmer's market

the gardens were gorgeous!


Hunter Creek








loved this patio! great place for morning coffee!






We stumbled onto a pet adoption fair...almost brought this sweet girl home! she was darling!!

It was in the 80's most of the time we were there, which is fairly warm for that altitude. All of us were using sunscreen and drinking water like crazy to stay hydrated...but apparently we weren't the only ones that were hot! :) This golden retriever was just sitting in the creek...ha.
