Elephants
truly are
amazing creatures.
It's incredible
how such large
creatures can be
so light on their feet.

St. Vrain State Park
St. Vrain State Park
I grew up seeing Twin Peaks from very close to St. Vrain State Park.
You could see them from nearly everywhere in the city.
I'm sure I took them for granted,
and It wasn't until I moved away for college,
in Wisconsin, that I realized how incredibly
beautiful my mountains were.
Living back in Colorado, has been amazing and incredible,
but I don't get up North
as often
as I'd like
to see
the beautiful
Twin Peaks.
Not complaining
Denver has
many beautiful
views
of the mountains.
I'm just super attached to these too. What do you think? Aren't they pretty spectacular?

Bakersville Waterfall Hike
This beautiful waterfall is one of the many you
can see on your drive up I 70 into the mountains from Denver.
Upon spotting it one day, we decided
we might it might be a really good hike.
In both beauty
and challenge
our hike didn't
disappoint.
In some ways,
it actually exceeded
expectations.
I really never been
afraid of heights,
or climbing.
As a child I was always the first or second one to climb an obstacle course,
or jump a stream. When they say having kids makes you more cautious ,
I had no idea, it would catch up to me on this hike.
My center of balance has changed, and somewhere near the top I slipped and realized...
What goes up must come down. Needless to say, we found an alternate route down and I'm becoming a little more cautious in my old age :0)

Georgetown Picnic in the Park
Georgetown
One of my favorite
summertime activities
is a picnic in the park.
A rock'n
playground nearby
is just the thing
to make sure your picnic is a
success for the little people.
Salads,
sandwiches
and sweets
make the
bigger people
happy.
Anyway
around it,
a little
bit of
sunshine
is good
for
everyone.
