What did we do in September?

Rocky Mountain National Forest

Rocky Mnt Nat Forest

We know that we will only be living in Denver for a year, so we have made a goal to go on at least one family trip each month to see something new. We hope to get the full Colorado experience while we are here.

We took a super fun day trip to Rocky Mountain National Forest and Estes Park. It was exciting so see the elk herds so close to the roads. The bulls were bugaling and sparring for the ladies. It was pretty sweet! The down sides...we unknowingly chose to go on "free park day" which meant that all of Colorado was there also. And, Tyler caught an unfortunate rash! It has already cost us $1000 in new hunting gear/permits and it has cost me speding my Firday nights watching his hunting shows. We hope he can find the cure he is looking for when he goes to Nebraska to see Mother Nature (and shoot it) in a few weeks.
This is our first camping trip in Colorado. We went to a ward campout at Pickle Gulch.
