A Day to Relax


Our vacations are not what I would call relaxing.  We get up early, and explore a National Park or something local.  Some days are travel days with hours in the car to get to the next destination. 


After our very windy day at Mesa Verde everyone was ready for some downtime. We slept in, which means 8 a.m., and had a leisurely breakfast of muffins before loading the van to explore Dolores Colorado.

Carrie is a champion at braiding hair for all the girls!

Never too old for the playground!



Alyssa was not feeling well. Doesn't she look sad!
Showing off his climbing skills.

You have to drink lots of water to avoid altitude sickness,
so we had a lot of bathroom breaks!


Picnic at Lake McPhee

Lake McPhee, it's the 2nd largest lake in Colorado



Skip-Bo & popcorn before watching  NASCAR

We bought carrots to feed the horses.



This slow, lazy day was much needed before we travel to Black Canyon of the Gunnison.
