Methinks you just ride your horse on in!

About the photo: The house is located in Crested Butte a mountain town in Colorado where the entire town is a historic district.  Crested Butte is also named, "The Wild Flower Capital of Colorado."  If you are wanting to find it on a map look in southwest Colorado, it's just north of Gunnison by about 20 miles. Or find Aspen and Crested Butte is sw over the mountain.

The town has a distinct personality, very family friendly, sports oriented place. While we were there, the townsfolk played baseball everynight on 3 different ball parks.  Now that might not seem so unusual, but this is at 8085 feet above sea level.  For some (like me) just walking and talking (without getting winded) was a feat!

They also have a delightful custom of using bicycles to travel around town.  The bikes, which I refer to as "beach cruisers" are referred to as "townies."  They are found everywhere around town.  I heard many are owned by the city and are available to whomever needs transportation. 

The locals have their own and find on occasion the bike turns up missing, assumed to be used to ride home from the bar, but found later on. 

If anyone is looking to refer to Crested Butte, I meet a great agent, Trish Giassa who sells Crested Butte Real Estate.  She's also on Active Rain.
