Top 10 Things to do with the Kids this Summer!!

Got kids and need some great ideas to keep them entertained?  Here are my top 10 things to do with kids!




1.  Mesa Verde National Park-  Kids love climbing the ladders, looking at the ruins and maybe learn something too! More info: www.nps.gov/meve

2.  Mancos River-  Head to Cottonwood Park and let the kids go swimming!  Great dug out swimming hole!

3.  Chicken Creek Area-  Take your bike or hiking shoes and enjoy a picnic by the lake in the Pines.
