So after our enlightening, whirlwind trip to New Orleans, son and I enjoy some much-needed downtime home in Colorado. It’s been awhile since I’ve taken a road trip without the RV and although we lucked out and had some great hotel experiences……well except for one night, I really missed my RV. There’s…

In our short and rushed visit to New Orleans, I’m grateful for the IA (intelligent/auto mode) on my camera. There was little to no time to think about photographer. Hurry up, point, and shoot was all the time I had. Son and I tried to see as much as we could in our short stay.…

Although I enjoy the freedom of being an empty nester, I relish visits with my children. Recently son drove in from Phoenix to visit us. Son has been researching a new career venture and wanted to run some things/ideas past his parents. I’m not sure when Al and I got soooo smart. I think it…

We reluctantly back up, hitch up, and depart Steamboat Lake State Park, Colorado. As we head in a southerly direction, Al and I discuss the weeks excursion. We do a quick recap and then Al asks the question, “If you could pick only one place in Colorado to visit, which…

This past week spent at Steamboat Lake State Park has flown by. We’ve hiked, we’ve explored, taken tons of pictures, enjoyed a couple of great campfires, read, had some yummy meals, and relaxed.
