Every February we go Winter Park and stay at Snow Mountain Ranch for our Mayberry family trip (see 2014's trip here!) We load up all the siblings and cousins and stay in a huge cabin all together. Each year we get better about sharing meals, bringing the right about of snacks (and beer), and staying longer! I just got my new lens (remember this post) and I totally paid the $3.99 overnight shipping with Prime so that my lens could arrive before our trip. 700 pictures and 4 days later, we were ... continue reading...
Week’s End

The other day, the Colorado sun was out and warmed up the city to melt all of the snow from the day before and bring the temperatures up to the 60s. We jumped on the opportunity to spend a Sunday afternoon at the park. ... continue reading...
Scarves in all Seasons
Happy February! Bruce and I braved the bitter Colorado winter weather for an afternoon out. We love the Colorado beauty and are amazed by all there is to adventure just nextdoor. Bitter it was, we just had a cold front sweep in and the weather was in the 20's.
