Chili Judging and Hunker Down

 
 
The town must have been desperate because they asked Ted to be one of the chili judges. He reluctantly agreed but only to judge the red chili - not the green really hot stuff. This was all part of the Colorado State Chili Championships. They also had a very good and very loud musical group called "Hunker Down".

Grand Lake hosts the Colorado State Chili Cook off Championships. It's the summer event for the town and raises scholarship funds. We went and even participated.

Had a visit from this rather large bull moose at the campground. Was in the campground for a couple of hours just munching away on the willow buds. Am sure he'll be back throughout the season.
