Estes Park here we come!

After saying goodbye to Cary, Melissa, Carson and the pups, we took a leisurely drive into the mountains. On our way to Estes, we did a little shopping, whole foods eating, and oogling of pine tree covered mountains and rushing rivers! Oh and the smell was intoxicating! I'd heard of fresh mountain air, but this was delicious!!! Josh reserved us a private cottage at the Baldpate Inn (pictures to come soon) and we had some home cookin' upon our arrival. Friday Josh hiked my legs off on a search from some elusive 'stream'---2 1/2 hours of hiking, not so much Kelly's idea of vacay. But then we found a super fun lake that we enjoyed taking pix around and climbed the little mountain behind it. There we encountered some chipmunk friends who hearted goldfish crackers!!! Again, only pix can do this justice! Okay--Summer's wedding will be featured in the next blog!
ps--i'm at MK conference right now, which started 2 days after we returned, so sorry to be so slow in bloggin' the trip of the summer!!!!!!!!!!!
