Fernweh - an aching desire to travel that is so profound that it makes you feel a sense of "homesickness" for a far off place. This is for those of you that have traveled to Breckenridge just for the Holiday Dog Parade. Welcome!!!!!!

Some Holiday Dog Parade Souvenir Shopping in Breckenridge. Stop by Mountain Tees on Main Street and check out the tee and stickers that were designed just for the parade. Not sure how long they will last. I don't like to promote just one store but these images caught my eye. All the shops in Breckenridge and Summit County are fabulous.

Part of visiting Breckenridge is going out to eat - Dog friendly restaurants are tough because food is served thus there aren't any. Plan on eating outside or leaving your dog at home. Reserations suggested/call ahead. The following have patios: The Blue Stag, Cool River, The Crown, Quandary Grill, Kenosha Steakhouse, Empire Burger, Santos, The Carlin, Aurum, The Gold Pan, Continental Divide Winery and The Outer Range in Frisco. Many of these have outside heaters. Some are only open for specific meals. There may be others and I apologize if I forgot them. Listed earlier are dog sitters.
