Durango

It is Saturday and it is Farmers Market Day.  It is early so not a lot of actual farm output.  One has some spectacular looking mushrooms.  They look too pretty to eat.  We sample vegan blueberry coffee cake then head out to explore town.  We stroll the Riverwalk along the Animas including a stop at the trout hatchery where we found tens of thousands of rainbow trout for stocking and dedicated tanks specifically for cut-throat trout, an endangered native species.    We check out the Durango-Silverton railroad roundhouse museum.  It has lots of other stuff but I enjoy the enormous steam engines.   We stroll past a few historic homes then head home.   There are thunder storms in the forecast and the sky is getting pretty gray.
