What is summer without some pool time??
Then off to Colorado for a great vacation. (Except that Kaleb was sick the whole week, but he was quite the trooper.)
Ilove Klara's face. This was taken by one of the many waterfalls that were really flowing. There was still quite a bit of snow and with the warmer temps, it made for fast and loud waterfalls everywhere you looked!
This is only 1 of the many jeep trails we took. Most of them were closed off at the summits due to too much snow. The bulldozers come thru and plow out the road. Most of the time the plow was taller than the jeep. (Oh, thanks to the Sims for letting us borrow their hard top too!!)
I'm not sure why this pic would not transfer right, but it's still pretty funny. It's mini me.
We took the kids on the mine tour. Both did great, but all the running water and Kaleb had to go potty again while we were down there. He did make it and even got a pic in.
Then off to Yankee Boy Basin. Again, we could not get to the top, but had time to stop by another waterfall for a group shot. (Notice how we are dressed and what we were standing in.)
Now Ophir Pass as you can see. We did make it to the top of this summit, but another 4 miles down and the road was washed out. That doesn't seem dramatic enough....washed out....what was to be our road turned into another raging waterfall. The sheriff's dept asked us to let the other town know so they could close this road until repaired.
We also ventured to Box Canyon Falls....another photo moment.
And lastly, all the Lilac bushes were in full bloom. Ahh, they smelled so perfect!I have more June info, but will post that in another blog.
