Telluride, Colorado is a beautiful mountain town on the western slope of the state.  I admittedly haven’t been to Aspen or Steamboat Springs (yet), but I feel confident in saying it would still be my favorite even if I had! Summer and early fall in Telluride are host to a plethora of amazing festivals and events – some of which are incredibly popular and famous (think Telluride Film Festival, anyone?). Even though there are many I would like to experience, the only one that I’ve made the trek for so far is the Telluride Balloon Festival, which is usually held the first weekend of every June! I love visiting Telluride in early…
