We love to find snow when we travel to National Parks. We typically take our trips in May and June which makes the cold, white stuff very exciting for us Georgians! Colorado didn't have a lot of snow this past winter, but we still found it in the higher elevations of Rocky Mountain National Park. The date we traveled Trail Ridge Road was May 30, and it was cold and windy.

| Oops! Brandon takes a spill, but Aaron stands his ground. |

| Alyssa wasn't prepared for the cold, so she is hiding from the cold wind. |

| Family Photo Op! Can you hear our teeth chattering? |
The next day we went to Bear Lake. Randy, Kate and I were here in January 2008 when we flew to Boulder for Jonathan and Sarah's wedding. That day was 11 degrees and blowing snow. We actually walked on the lake as it was totally frozen.

Our May day at Bear Lake we found a miniscule amount of snow, but the kids still managed to throw snowballs.
