Leaving the Sand Creek Massacre site we drove South towards Las Animas to look for a good place to camp. Nearing the town we noticed signs for the John Martin Reservoir State Park and decided it was as good a place to camp as any. That is until we saw the staggering price of $20 for staying just one night at a …

Evening on the Lake
For the first time in many years we finally had a family camping trip. Joining me was my father, two brothers and one of my nieces. The trip was done on short notice so after not finding places near Denver we settled on camping at Lake Pueblo State Park. Located just west of downtown Pueblo, CO the lake offers quite a …
Evening Storms
After leaving the stormy Midway Geyser area we proceeded to the famous Old Faithful Geyser. Upon arriving we noticed a large crowd gathered around the geyser, signaling the eminent explosion of scalding hot water. As we waited to see Old Faithful be faithful the storm we just left found us again. With rain and crazy clouds surrounding Old Faithful the geyser began to erupt …

Seeing that the sun was setting quickly we rushed up the road and caught a few minutes of light …

Sunflower Sunset

After picking up Jon and his fiancé in Broomfield we headed north on I-25. We left the interstate at highway 52 and proceeded to go west. At that time a large storm was brewing over the mountains and shafts of …
Dragonfly Evening
This evening my brother, father and I went up north to test out my brother’s new fishing boat. After driving around for a bit we decided to go to one of my favorite areas in Longmont, Pella’s Crossing. Pella’s Crossing consists of 3 ponds along with trails connecting even more ponds to the west. Seeing that there wasn’t enough room …
Sand Dune Evening
This upcoming saturday is my friends wedding in Santa Fe, NM. So I decided to start my trip a few days early and go camping in the Sand Dunes. Upon arriving the winds were rather strong just setting up the tent alone was an ordeal. The family that had the campsite next to me were extremely nice and even invited …
