Day 2 – Just as Good as the First

Yesterday was just as good, if not better than the first. Rocky Mountain National Park is truly amazing. We took in Sprague Lake in the morning and were treated to a spectacular view with great morning light and our shutter fingers could not have been happier clicking away. Only problem was trying to wrestle the…

Great day in the park

We had a fantastic day of hiking after getting about 9 hours of sleep. The rain held off until about 20 min after we finished hiking and after a soak in the hot tub and showers we opened the drapes to discover clear skies and a beautiful evening. We are gathering camera gear now and…

Vacation Begins

Yesterday was by far the longest either of us has travelled for the shortest distance. After 14 hours yesterday we had still only made it 250 miles to NYC. But in that time we had taken off from MHT and landed there again and hour and a half later. We shuttled to Boston, flew to…

Seattle – Tacoma

We added a few more frequent flyer miles to our tally this past week by taking a trip out to Seattle-Tacoma. The primary reason for the trip was to attend a wedding along the Hood Canal. Jared, one of our friends that we met in Denmark, picked a very beautiful (if not a little chilly)…

Zion

We hiked to the top of Angels Landind this morning. The last half mile was about 3-5 feet with a couple thousand plus feet drop off ok either side. Add to that the necessity to practically crawl in most spots and it was both scary and tiring. But also rewarding… The view was an amazing…
