Day 23 Durango to Aztec to Durango 9/27/17

Wednesday, September 27
A rainy day in Durango.  We started the day with a trip to Bread-a bakery with a reputation of good products, and brusque, surly customer service.  They didn't disappoint.  We got som pastries and some sandwiches to take on our day's adventure.  
We made a road trip to Aztec, New Mexico to the Aztec Ruins National Monument.  Contrary to the name, no aztecs lived here-the ruins are from ancient puebloan people. The ruins are kinda like the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde, with the cliffs.  We toured the ruins in the rain-as such picture taking was difficult, so I don't have many photos to share. Afterwards, we wandered our bank to Durango on backroads, stopping for lunch along some unknown river.  Our sandwiches from Bread were tasty.
When Laurel got home from work, we went for dinner at the Carver Brewery BrewPub for dinner.  Had a great time! Our server asked Jo for her ID when she ordered a beer-she was thrilled, he was embarrassed when he realized Jo's statement of "I'm older than your mother" was correct! We all a good laugh.
