48 Hours In 45 Seconds

There's a little bundle of 100% adorableness waiting for me outside so I need to make this quick, but we've been having such an awesome time I couldn't help but share some pics. Off to make snow angels...

We're in the Rockies, It snowed the day we got here and the day after that and today. HUGE bull elk have been everywhere, and they actually had to close the main pass over the continental divide due to too much snow, but we wound up hiking around a lake at lower altitude that was stunning so no worries. Hopefully the pass will open up before we have to leave on Thursday, the drive is supposed to be out of this world. And then there was the wine and cheese bar just waiting for us to take over their dining room with our one year old... they truly loved him and we truly loved their wine and cheese. And the fishing (which is about 10 feet from the front door of our cabin...) has not exactly panned out the way dad would like it too, but Ash loves his Barbie fishing pole and can't get over the yummy white cold stuff on the ground so he sticks with dad and that big pole that he keeps throwing in the river for some odd reason. And then the babe goes to bed, and mom and dad crack open one of the many delicious options for CO microbrews and hop in the hot tub and watch the snow fall over Longs Peak. And that was just day #1. I guess you could say we're having an OK time.

Heh, Barbie fishing pole! Okay, these photos and your description are even making this city girl yearn a little bit for some wide open spaces.

Where exactly did you stay in CO? We would like to go, but are having trouble figuring out where exaclty to stay.
Have a great time in MN. I would love to meet up with you, but unfortunately for us, we are busy in the field and can't get away. maybe sometime in the future when you get back to MN
