Colorado, part 2: Boulder & Estes Park
I'm having a tough time narrowing this set down, but here are some favorites...
Dusk on Pearl Street Mall in Boulder:
This little cutie had an ear infection during the trip, but she was such a good sport about everything:
Hydrating:
Hikers:
The start of the trail in Chautauqua Park, Boulder:
Who's navigating this expedition? (Not a particularly flattering picture of me, but I like it anyway):
Now entering Rocky Mountain National Park.
Dream Lake and Twin Owls:
I think she fell asleep during each of our four hikes:
Elk:
Just another great view (and the mountains are interesting too):
We stayed at the Stanely Hotel in Estes Park. If you didn't already hear me blabbering about it on Twitter, this place was the inspiration for Stephen King's The Shining:

New toys:
New books:
Royalty for a day:
The crown doesn't stay on for long. We'll try again next year.
My, how much things can change in a year (see this):
