Windmills in the clouds
 |
| BIG Colorado skies |
 |
| Sadly, we were out in Colorado for a funeral, but Matt and I tried to have a good time and use it as an excuse to get away for our anniversary. |
 |
| We stayed in this great Airbnb, right in downtown Loveland. |
 |
| We drove all day Saturday and were pretty beat, but we tried to get out for a bit downtown that first night. |
 |
| There was a chalk art festival that we walked around in and then just went out for some drinks. |
 |
| Sunday, before the funeral, we met halfway with Rachel and had a little brunch. It was too short, but so good to see an old friend. We've been friends for 25 years. |
 |
| After the funeral, I made Matt pull over on the side of the road and take pictures of us (he was so annoyed) |
 |
| Loveland is known for their bronze sculptures. They are everywhere. We walked through their 10 acre sculpture garden which was beautiful. |
 |
| Me? |
 |
| I obviously like the rabbits |
 |
| Sun was setting and the whole sky was on fire, it was beautiful |
 |
| Monday was the day that we took for ourselves. We drove up to Estes and down to Boulder and back around to Loveland. |
 |
| The yellow you see are the Aspens. |
 |
| The aspens were all turning to Yellow, they were amazing |
 |
| We tried out this 'easy' 2.7 mile hike (one way, then you have to go back down!) |
 |
| It was obviously INCREDIBLE. But, uh...there is no air up there so my lungs kept collapsing. But Matt made me keep going and I'm so glad he did. Totally worth it and I was pretty darn proud of myself! |
 |
| Look at that damn elevation! |
 |
| Unbelievable blue skies |
 |
| This was on our way out of the park- amazing |
 |
| Boulder- cute but yuppy as all get out (their fire hydrants are millennial mint green) |
 |
| The last waterfall! |
 |
| We got home and showered and found this old 70's steakhouse to have our 'anniversary' dinner. It was delicious! I can't remember the last time I actually ordered steak at a restaurant. |
