Colorado: Not All Fishing

My mom and I took a trip to Colorado and despite the look of the previous post we did see more than fish.

Petrified Stump
Kansas sunset
Nebraska thunderstorm
old mining relic
Bourbon
elephant head flower
mule deer in velvet
moose
dipper bird
sunflower
pika

But it’s possible we only looked up when the fish weren’t biting!

rainbow trout
brook trout
hungry fish made this even prettier in person

New Mantra

I’ve heard people wax poetic about the joys returning from vacation to their home and family.

I think they are all  liars.

Personally I seem to be half stuck in vacation mode, confused and overwhelmed by home life.  It’s all a bit – “Wait, I have to make you all lunch?” mixed with a touch of, “Where did all you weeds come from?” finished with a dab of “How could all you animals possibly have pooped this much while I was gone?”

So before I become re-mired in broken water heaters (Welcome home!),  potty training, crying, lawn mowing, cooking (Three meals a day, what is with that?) and laundry I thought I’d share a few more photos of our fantastic trip to Colorado as I repeat my new mantra…

 

 

… it was worth it. It was worth it. It was worth it…
