Adventures in Colorado!

June 26, 2013

Ready for a whole bunch of photos from our week in Colorado? Because that’s what you’re about to get! With a little info on where we were or what we were up to.

em petunias Michael’s brother and his fiancee just moved into a new apartment, so I decided they need a petunia. Super color, no?

bluffs colorado Michael’s other brother’s wife’s family (get all that?) lives near these bluffs, perfect for short hikes with great views.

colorado terrain I loved how different the terrain was from Dublin or Maine or the midwest – rusty red dirt and rocky paths.

mike em garden of gods I also loved these incredible red rocks at the Garden of the Gods. Michael color-coordinated appropriately.

And nature complimented itself perfectly as well.

Tall rocks, tall dude.

garden of gods mike and em We found a shady nook. Colorado sun is no joke!

incline Then we hiked this crazy incline, which made me want to die for all 4,350 steps. Until it was over, at which point I could kind of see how it gets addictive! Such a rush! Also so much sweatiness.

little man ice cream Then we got well-deserved ice cream at Little Man Ice Cream in Denver. It was so hot it melted almost as fast as I could lick.

All in all, a wonderful trip! We are now recuperating (and getting back to work!) in Maine for a few weeks before we return to Dublin. We’re lucky ducks with all these adventures this summer and it’s so fun to re-live them through the photos!
