Discovering Cortez

Catching a late flight on Thursday, we landed at Cortez Municipal Airport. It always feels a little weird flying over the desert at night. Without city lights below everything just looks like a big empty space. It's sort of eerieImage.

From the airport we rented a car and made the short drive into the city of Cortez, Colorado. Cortez is a pretty small place, but in the perfect location. Not only does it have an airport close by, Cortez is surrounded by a number of national parks, reservations, and beautiful scenery.

On arriving in town, we swung by a drive-thru for a quick bite and pulled in to the Tomahawk Lodge. Going by the price and reviews I found, the T-Hawk seemed like the best place to make our desert HQ. While it was nothing fancy, our room was clean, the staff were nice and they had free coffee and snacks in the morning. Score.

I have been to Mesa Verde National Park twice in my life once when i was a little girl with my family on vacation and then 9 years ago with my husband on our honeymoon going across country to get to Washington. I love it their it is so remarkable as how the indians made them and was able to hide from their enemies.
