summer days are here!

Don't you just love those summer days. I literally saw my husband one day before 10pm last week and that was thursday!! Trail Ridge Road has finally opened all the way, from Estes Park to Grand Lake. I had never been on the other side and it was lovely. We just drove and stopped like tourists, then drove again all afternoon. The views are like none other.

 Driving reminded me why I love the Pula so so very much. We had such an easy going time and I can have fun with him anywhere. Did I mention I had the very best artichoke, pesto, smoked cheese sandwich of my life...nom nom. 

Take a look

[I didn't condense my pictures cause I wanted you to see the whole thing...WARNING: there are a lot of pics]

continental divide

In the clouds... Longs peak and others

so many lakes tucked away in the mountains

Enjoyed on lunch on the dock on this picture perfect lake with lots of little cabins and mountains.. I could live here.

up up and away

I saw this and couldn't resist... doesn't it look like it leads to a wonderful, mysterious place. If I was into trail running, this trail would be perfect! 

Can you see Husband out there? 

At the top, there is lots of alpine tundra, where trees don't grow cause it's too cold...and that road was awesome. 

Hard to show but the road drops off on both sides..

So delicious...Words can't even describe. I think it might become a weekly treat.
