Estes Park Trip

Lori and I took a quick trip to Estes Park this past weekend for a little R & R. We had a great time, soaking in the wonder and majesty of God's creation in the Rocky Mountain National Park. We took a hike thru the woods to a glacier lake
saw unbelievable mountain peaks
and even did a little elk hunting (this is for you, Rick, Randy & Rod). This big bull came down out of the mountain with his "harem" every evening to feast on the lush grass of a local golf course.

It was a wonderful trip. The only bad thing was we had to share it with thousands of other people all cramming to get in one last summer trip over the Labor Day weekend. The roads were packed with cars and motorcycles. What a zoo!!

Back to work this week, bummer!!

Oh well, I have lots of pictures and memories. Lori, let's start planning our next trip!!

That is a big bull. Yes, you are making us antsy to get up there. Sounds like a cool trip, even with the other bunches of humans. You picked a good place to travel. Neat pictures!

Good thing that elk is in Estes because it wouldn't have a chance next week up at the flat tops.
