Aspen 2011

 We had so much fun on this trip. We hiked and explored towns and streams. We enjoyed the late afternoon thunder in a way that can only be experienced in the mountains. We napped, ate, and swam. But the best part of this whole trip was watching cousins playing with each other.

And even if we'd never left the house it would've been worth the 3 hour flight and 4 hour drive to get to Aspen.

The gondola rides were a nice bonus...

And the Maroon Bells were breathtaking. I'd been there before, but never with such precious cargo...

We dipped our toes in icy cold creeks....

And mostly we laughed, got to eat graham crackers whenever we wanted, and screamed at the top of our lungs...
