Lily Pad Lake

Hello,
     I realized I forgot to share the rest of the photos from our camping trip two weekends ago!  Many weekends during the summer here in Colorado I really miss New Jersey and the beach, but scenery like this really helps to make up for it!
 

     Most of these photos were taken on a hike we did to Lily Pad lake and the views really didn't disappoint! It was really good for R and I to get off our lazy bottoms and do something active instead of lounge around the campsite all day.  I got treated to lunch afterwards too in the little town nearby, so all of the physical activity was worth the effort (and got completely cancelled out).
Have you done any cool hikes this summer?

      Kristian,
      I drove out here from NJ after I graduated college! I had visited Boulder a few times on vacation growing up and fell in love with it and just decided to go for it! My degree is also in environmental policy, so CO seemed like a really good place to look like a job in that field :)

    Ahhh this sounds like such a wonderful vacation. Thanks for sharing your photos with us, what fun! I know I am super duper late on this train- but the red hair is amazing on you. I am not sure if it's your natural color or not (or if the blonde is) but it just look fabulous on you- amazing how well you can pull off both colors like they are completely natural and both totally suit you. Beautiful!
