Saturday & Sunday June 9-10th: Well, at the end of last week I was busy selling my condo! God has good timing I tell ya. I'm so glad the stress of trying to sell my place has been lifted. With everything going on, I wasn't able to go camping this weekend but I did go out exploring.

I drove down south through Boulder, West on I-70 through Golden, North/West on I-40 through Winter Park and then through Grandby and Grand Lakes and then East through Estes Park (over Trail Ridge Road). This picture is just
south of Boulder.

A nice spot to stop and
take a stroll or have a picnic. There were lots of animals through this cooridor from Grand Lake up to the Trail Ridge Road.
I saw
three moose this weekend!! This big guy was right on the trail ~ he crossed the trail and was so close I couldn't get him all in the picture! I saw another moose on this same trail ~ by Grand Lake (~2.5hrs from my house) and another not far from here on another trail.
Of course,
lots of elk in Colorado! This was a beautiful meadow just north of Grand Lake. I sat and watched them for a bit and then continued on my journey.

This
little fox was jumping around the meadow ~ probably playing in the grass or hunting. He was fun to watch.

I think these
mountain goats were posing for pictures! They were right along the road near the top of Trail Ridge Road (~11,000 feet up). There were actually quite a few of them but some scattered behind the bushes.
Just some neat scenery along the Trail Ridge Road:

Well,
tune in next week to see what other neat things I can find!!

Dear Aunt Amy, We like the moose! Do you have other pictures of moose? They are really cool pictures. I really like the fox. We like what Colorado looks like. Will you take us exploring when we visit in August? Love you, Emily and Alex.
Honestly, you should be a tour guide! In all my years in CO, I have never seen so many different wildlife in 1 weekend! The moose are spectacular!!!
Hey Amy,
We sure are enjoying your pictures and discriptions, but we can't wait to see it all in person. We are really looking forward to seeing your new place too.
Keep them coming!
We miss you.
Love,
Mom and Dad
Hey Amy,
Live that dream girl. Jealousy is everywhere. We look forward to seeing soon.
Terry & Joan
