I've been busy doing this
Riding the Amtrak train from Chicago to Colorado
Enjoying fabulous sculptures in Grand Junction, CO
Playing in the pool
Rafting on the Colorado River
Seeing awesome wildlife
Petting horses on the ranch
Horseback riding
Enjoying the view on horseback
Hanging out with these lovely people
marveling at how rocks can stay like that
being completely amazed at the landscape out here
marveling at how shifting plates, wind and water can create such amazing views
hoping the crack on this arch doesn't get any bigger while I'm resting under it!
knitting
hiking along some (not too bad) trails
watching my children also be amazed by it all
going to my first rodeo
not sure if I'm hoping the cowboys get him or he gets away lol!
driving
looking at imprints of fossils
checking out the locals
having picnics
smiling for the camera
taking pictures
Sight-seeing with this bunch
thinking my children are growing up too fast
hanging out with my husband
Looking at rocks and seeing what shapes I see (this looks like a sheep laying on the ground to me)
Exploring
seeing things I've never seen before
helping these guys become junior rangers
And mostly, just having fun and relaxing.
Wow.. that's a lot of doing! Good to see people are still getting out and about nowadays. My family is going camping this weekend. I unfortunately am stuck at home because I work on the weekends :( Anyways, I traveled cross country when I was younger and in Arizona there were some rocks like those standing ones. Isn't that just amazing to see up close?
