In 1999, on our sailing trip to destinations south, we met many wonderful people, and with some we stayed friends even after we returned to our lifes on land. One of these lasting relationships is with Ilana and Britt from Windom.

If you want to hear more about their travels, have a look at one of their many websites; they posted great stories and fantastic pictures there.

Their "life on land" takes place in Durango, Colorado. We had a long standing invitation to come and visit them ...an email from Britt that the guest room was ready tipped the scale (although, there was not much tipping required, but it made an excellent excuse to drop our work, book a flight and GO!).

And so we did, via Denver, which is about an 8 hours drive away.
