Wandering over hills and mountains
Road Trips

A much-needed road trip from Denver to Phoenix and then onward to Las Vegas. Many stops at National Parks along the way thousands of miles driven and many laughs.
Hikes
Breckenridge nestled among the Rockies, was my first stop to see the towering wooden figure of Isak Heartstone, a friendly troll tucked away among the trees. Surprisingly, I stumbled upon an Oktoberfest celebration in full swing in town. A last-minute decision to take a drive through Loveland Pass I found a road winding gracefully through the mountains, showcasing breathtaking vistas at every turn.
A chilly 5.4-mile hike to Ouzel Falls in Rocky Mountain National Park with my friend Elizabeth. We had hoped to see the aspen leaves change and just barely missed them!
