Anniversary Roadtrip!

For our 1-year anniversary we decided to take an abbreviated version of our honeymoon roadtrip. We ended up heading to Southwest Colorado for Westy camping, great food, wine tasting, hiking, and being all shmoopy with each other for a few days. Its always nice to turn your back on emails and electronics for a while...my phone conveniently died on the day we left, and Lynn's wouldn't charge the whole time, so we didn't even hear a phone ring for 5 days. Aaaaahhhhhh....

Have coffee, make road trip!

First stop, Palisade CO....just in time for some wine tasting at Grande River Vineyard. We closed down the tasting bar and picked up a couple of their reserves and port! We wandered the grapes and snacked on a few afterward...





We made it to Telluride the next day and took a little hike up to and above Bridal Veil Falls. Gorgeous views of the valley from up there.

The aspens are just starting to show their gold...

Lynn gets rained on coming down from the top...

Here's a few images of the falls...




This was our first trip over Lizard Head Pass, just another brilliant corner of this state. This is Lizard Head Peak in a misty sunset...

Lynn wrote me an anniversary love note with her headlamp during this 20 minute exposure. Now that's what I call love.
