This is crazy

  

Walking in scenic places, we run into people taking pictures of each other and offer to take a photo of both, or all, of them at once.  Like this couple.

 

That often triggers a conversation and we have a good visit.  Sometimes it ends up with another picture with Henry included.  We exchange email addresses.  We exchange pictures.

 

And sometimes, it just ends up being a party!

The high country


 

A few photos from last weekend in Estes Park and surroundings.

 A broad-tailed hummingbird in the willow blooms.

 A mountain chickadee.

 Scenery in the park.

 

 

A steller’s jay.

 Trail Ridge Road was open to Rainbow Curve, but closed after that for some reason.

 The road beyond was open for walking though, so we did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Clark’s nutcracker.

 

And back down to the low-country of Estes Park.

Yesterday

  

Yesterday we drove back down the mountain to St Vrain State Park (…and Teigan’s graduation ceremony).

 

 

 

 

 

The Great Alaska Trip map

 

3,037 miles to Fairbanks.  Again!

Teigan

 

 

Teigan graduated from High School today!

 

She has been home-schooled by Becky for several years.  She wasn’t in a class at an institution, so she got her own graduation ceremony.

 

 

 

Friends, family,

 

 

food, and badminton.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And family pictures.
