Not just about the Grand Valley, but the Colorado wine industry as a whole. Features some nice drone footage of Bookcliff Vineyards in Palisade and a visit to Creekside Cellars in Evergreen. Good, relatively short video.

Not necessarily pictures of the Grand Valley, but one of the advantages of living in the western part of the state is having greater access to some wonderful places. Telluride, Ouray and all the national parks in eastern Utah are not that far of a drive, just to name a few.

We did a road trip into Moab this weekend. About an hour + drive and a million years back in time. Home of a great Pho place too, 98 Center.

There are probably many caves in Colorado, but this one hasn’t been made into a tourist trap yet and is within a few miles of downtown Grand Junction.

We’ve been trying to stay isolated, but just not indoors. Yesterday we discovered one of the most pristine parts of Colorado we’ve come across in sometime, the West Elks. About an hour SE of Grand Junction.

There is a 22+ mile long paved trail along the Colorado River from west of Fruita to almost Palisade. Here are a few pics from the eastern portion. Mt Garfield, the Bookcliffs and the Grand Mesa featured.

Saw a lot on the water, not a lot IN the water. LOL.

The 4th spent social distancing under watermelon and lemon umbrellas while listening to bands at the Band in the Barrel series at Restoration Vineyards.

Followed by a quick stop at Blaine’s for some early season tomatoes.
