    Colorado Trip

    We just got back from a 10 day trip to Colorado to visit my daughters family, and some very old friends we were stationed with in the UK. I actually helped them get their first Labrador way back in 1986. We spent 4 days camping just outside Rocky Mountain National Park. I'm not much of a camper, but I must admit, I had a really good time.

    Elk in velvet inside the park



    Bull Elk grazing



    View from Trail Ridge Road (opened this day) towards Long Peak



    Looking west on Tail Ridge Road



    Cornices and small avalanches at the top of Trail Ridge Road



    Snow removal tools!



    Wild turkey in the park



    Elk in the Valley



    Part 2 will come tomorrow!!!!

    Rocky Maintain National Park was my favorite place to go on a vacation, but that has been many, many years ago. Sure miss it.

    I would just drive randomly in the park until I got lost, then drive around until it found a way out. The maintains are breathe taking, just loved it.

    Need more pictures to bring back the memories.

    I've got a good excuse now that my daughter and her family live there. It was really cool seeing our grandkids playing with my friends grandkids. Our kids were the same age way back when, so it's as things have come full circle!
