Mesa Verde, then Family!

 8/15/11

 

I love Mesa Verde.  I remember loving it the first time I came here as a little kid.  This was my third time here, and its effect over me hasn’t diminished.  It has a mythical feel to it.  You find yourself staring into the rooms and daydreaming about life here.  I like those kind of places.

Here's some of the gorgeous drive up to the Carbondale / Aspen area.

And the highlight of the day- making it to Dad’s place near Aspen and starting a week of family and friends!

Can you believe that view?  And that's only about 1/3 of it in the shot!
