This prime fall weekend for viewing colors, we were apparently not alone in choosing to head into the mountains...
 |
| These two in yellow matched the scenery all day long |
Every time we encountered a new peek of brighter color, we pit stopped to grab a closer look. And as we climbed to higher elevations, it got better and better.
 |
| We found a great place to have lunch, wishing our own Cy was along with us |
 |
| My favorite shot of the day |
 |
| These memories will be held dear |
Okay, so how is it that I have lived here over 25 years, but I have never before driven over Trail Ridge Road? I'm pretty sure I would have remembered these steep drop offs. Yikes!
 |
| Way steeper than it looks here |
 |
Just to compare, this is a similar view of the road we traveled, but in winter.
No wonder they close it down for several months each year. |
 |
| But really beautiful views |
 |
| There we are |
 |
| My girl and I, enjoying a river |
 |
| And my love and I, near the end of a very full day |
You and your camera take awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing them. I wish I would've been in the car to see it first-hand!
