Napa Valley

 

The lifts finally stopped spinning, Vail Village slowly emptied out, and Jake finally got to rest!  After a successful first season running Base Camp for Venture Sports, Jake and I were blessed with an end of the season trip to the Napa Valley.  We stayed at The Orchard at Carneros Inn which is affiliated with the Sebastian Hotel that Jake works with in Vail.

We spent six days biking, trail running, relaxing by the pool, drinking wine, and eating delicious meals.  The best part?  Six days together!  What a treat after a busy winter of coming and going.  Jake and I got to spend some quality time. Together.
