As Dw prepares to leave the country for the next 15 days we had one last date to squeeze in. I told him that I got to pick since he is the one leaving.

We headed downtown to grab a cup of coffee at Starbucks. We had brought breakfast bars because of how “good for us” they are compared to things like an Almond Royale from Jean Pierre’s Bakery. After sitting outside Starbucks and drinking our coffees and eating our breakfast bars we could hear Jean Pierre’s calling, “Come over and eat a moist, fat laden, delectable Almond Royale – PLEEEEEASE!”
If only we had more willpower!! That Almond Royale was so yummy! (Hey, give us a break – at least we split it!)

Then we drove up the road and parked Dw’s truck. We unloaded our bikes and rode all over downtown Durango looking at the beautiful architecture so delightfully characteristic to the old homes in the late 1800’s. Talking, laughing and riding bikes. Riding bikes with my best friend – does it get any better than that?
