Brief backstory: We almost didn't make it here because Rob saw a recent Oprah episode where she interviewed Tom Cruise at his home in Telluride. And with Oprah having a home in the Telluride area {I think}, Rob {jokingly} thought that's why I wanted to come here. I'm really not a celebrity stalker, just very easily star struck. I've actually had Telluride on my list long before I knew Oprah and Tom had property here. When I worked at Saatchi I helped plan a Toyota event that took place here and never had the opportunity to attend.
Back to the sneak peak: Rob was convinced from a friend that Telluride is gorgeous and worth the visit. Our friend, Brent, actually the groom from the wedding in Boulder we attended last Saturday, was absolutely right! Telluride is so lovely and picturesque. We happened to stop in a sweet shop this evening to grab an ice cream cone after dinner and guess who walked in? Tom and Katie! No freakin' joke! Even funnier, Rob was trying to convince me that we should get an ice cream cone tomorrow, not tonight. I just love the irony in this stroy! I can't believe that we saw them and Rob can't believe that he couldn't escape them!
Telluride is an incredibly beautiful city! The other highlight thus far was seeing Stevie Wonder perform in Denver. He's actually going to be at the Hollywood Bowl on the 7th. It was perhaps the best concert I've ever been to (behind Jack of course).
More to come soon...

i love road trips. too bad the teen'd rather poke her eyeballs out with a rusty butter knife.
I'm surprised tom let katie out of the house. And whose watching Suri?
Very picturesque. I've never heard of Telluride before but that's not surprising since I live a lot of my day under a rock. And I don't watch Oprah.

Beautiful scenery! And way cool that you saw Tom and Katie!! Did she look just as glass-eyed and hypnotized in person?
