The Time I Turned a Quarter of a Century: Part II

So day one and two in Denver were done.  They were highly successful and incredibly fun.  On the morning of Day 3, we woke up and donned our "hiking" gear for a trek up a mountain.  But literally, it was a mountain.

Prepare yourself for photo overload and keep in mind that I was not about to bring my new Canon Rebel out into the rain on a steep hike, so my iPhone photos hardly do the thing justice.  The scenery was truly breathtaking.

Fact: Serious elevation means serious struggle breathing.



Why can't my backyard look like that?

No joke, that's the kind of terrain we maneuvered to get to the top!

Finally at the top.  Look how tiny that town looks below us.  That's where we started!

An hour and a half later and 2 miles later, we're at the peak!

Made it.

Made it.

Made it.

Oh, so this is what fall looks like outside of Texas?!

We just climbed that. NBD.



What a morning...just a little hike up that mountain.  You know, typical Saturday.

More to come on our featured item of the trip: Great American Beer Fest.
