Yesterday we rode to Alto NM for one night. After getting there we were all wishing we were staying longer. The hotel had nice big rooms and was located right in a little quaint town lined with shops and little restaurants. Colin had an interview with the Courier Journal and thought it was quite funny that the reporter actually wanted to speak with me too! The article should be in next Wednesday's paper if you live in Macedon and want to pick up a copy. Luckily we had some time before the show to explore a bit in town and really enjoyed it. It was a beautiful crisp autumn day. The mountains around us were snow capped!

When we got to the Spencer Theater we were amazed. First of all it was located right in the middle of nowhere. From outside the theater all you could see were beautiful mountains all along the horizon. The theater itself had a very unique shape (check out the photos). Inside were beautiful glass sculptures hand blown by artist Dale Chihuly. The theater staff were incredibly accomodating. They put out a delicious spread for the cast and crew which was really appreciated.

After the show we were invited to Rhiannon and Melissa's room for a wine and cheese party. They found a wonderful wine shop in town and stumbled on some yummy wine that they wanted to share with us. It was nice to hang out with some of the cast and just relax and chat. Colin chose to stay in our room, he was in need of some alone time which we all need now and then!

We got up early this morning and started our 10 hour trek at 7am. We will be driving to Fort Collins CO to spend the night and then get up in the morning and drive straight to Bozeman MT. It's going to be a long couple of days!!!
