I got up when I couldn\u2019t stay in bed any longer (about 7:30 local).<\/p>\n<p>Then we had a little breakfast and sat around awhile trying to figure out what all we needed to do today\u2026 not much but we did decide to <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">make<\/strong> a run to Creede.&nbsp; We also needed to get some things from the <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">store<\/strong> that we had forgotten \u2013 soap and matches or a lighter as it turned out.&nbsp; On the way out of the campground I stopped at the office to dump off my last years copies of FMCA magazines and let them know we would stay 3 nights not 2 and leave on Wed.&nbsp; In the office I met author or <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">one<\/strong> of the <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">RV<\/strong> related blogs I keep up with \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/chappytrails.blogspot.com\/\">Chappytrails<\/a>.&nbsp; Her and her husband are camphosts up here at <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">one<\/strong> of the many Forest Service campgrounds.<\/p>\n<p>We stopped at the only <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">store<\/strong> in South Fork \u2013 Rainbow Market.&nbsp; It didn\u2019t <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">look<\/strong> like much on the outside and the parking <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">lot<\/strong> was not very big, maybe enough room for 20 cars?&nbsp; They also had a station across the way.&nbsp; SURPRISE, SURPRISE, in my best Gomer voice\u2026 when we walked in it still didn\u2019t <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">look<\/strong> to big but seemed to be stacked full.&nbsp; There was a stairs to the upper <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">level<\/strong> \u2013 mind you this had been a metal building and the upper <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">level<\/strong> in most of them was just a half attic but in this <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">one<\/strong> it was a close ceiling second <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">level<\/strong> packed full of \u201cstuff\u201d.&nbsp; They had more stuff than any <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">store<\/strong> 4 times their size.&nbsp; They even had a really nice <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">RV<\/strong> parts supply area with more parts than I have seen in most <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">RV<\/strong> centers.&nbsp; All those small hard to find parts, that you can never find but have to order anyway were packed back in there.&nbsp; Along with a shoe area, t-shirts, plumbing, paints, electrical parts, misc. tools, etc.&nbsp; They could possibly put a True Value to shame up there and the grocery and regular stuff along with more fishing supplies than I had seen in a real long time down stairs\u2026 the upstairs looked like this:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5128.temp.domains\/~ishmaels\/blog3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/2011-06-27-11.18.28.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"2011-06-27-11.18.28\" style=\"border-top: 0px;

I wandered around there like a kid in the toy <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">store<\/strong> as there was so much stuff!\u2026 I even found some things that gave me ideas on fixing other problems I have in the RV\u2026 now that I know they exist I will do some research before I buy the items I saw but suffice it will help a <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">lot<\/strong> if it will work out\u2026 We went down stairs and got the few supplies we needed \u2013 less than $9 worth and that included some ketchup that we really didn\u2019t need and a $3.50 lighter for the oven.<\/p>\n<p>Once out of there we were back on our way toward Creede.&nbsp; The drive up the valley we have done many times before and we are always amazed at the growth in the area and the increase in the number of residences they keep sticking in up there.&nbsp; I know there can\u2019t be that many jobs up here so what do all those people do to <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">make<\/strong> enough to have second homes like the ones we see?&nbsp; We commented that we should of pushed ourselves back then and just bought property anyway.&nbsp; We could have but we never thought we had enough money to do that, in reality you can do what ever you want. You just <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">make<\/strong> the compromises along the way to get it done.<\/p>\n<p>Once at Creede we made the drive most of the way up main street and found a good spot to park and start walking, just to <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">look<\/strong> mind you.&nbsp; It is a really interesting town and the actual town never seems to change a lot, the shop owners may change but the town it self changes very little.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/box5128.temp.domains\/~ishmaels\/blog3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/IMG_3505.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"IMG_3505\" style=\"border-top: 0px;

It was pretty good, but I suspect the green chili was the pre-made stuff out of New Mexico. <\/p>\n<p>The growth for this area is mostly outside the town itself that is growing in huge amounts.&nbsp;

They still are short on trees.&nbsp; It was built in an area that had no <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">trees<\/strong> but that place is now huge.&nbsp;&nbsp; We stayed here a long time ago, maybe a year or two after it opened- well before the resort part&nbsp; opened.&nbsp; It is nice but you should do your own checking of the reviews. <\/p>\n<p>After out tour around the area and of the RV-Resort we headed back to our RV.&nbsp; My intent was to get a nap in\u2026 that didn\u2019t happen.&nbsp; Someone wanted the Sat dish set up and oh, lets put out a hummer feeder \u2013 which we really didn\u2019t have any place to hang it so now, tomorrow I will stop at the Rainbow <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">store<\/strong> and see if in all those <strong class=\"StrictlyAutoTagBold\">RV<\/strong> supplies they have some awning guide things that we can use as hangers for such stuff. <\/p>\n<p>For dinner we had the left over from Raton and boy it was almost as good as when it was first made.&nbsp;
