Today we went to the Rocky Mountains National Park. It was a 45-minute drive from our cabin to the park, and the scenery was gorgeous! We drove around looking for trails, and we discovered Colorado river too! We all ended up 'crossing' the Colorado river, and had a blast! 
We hiked two trails, one of which was very, very steep. The 15 minute hike up the Alpine trail resulted in an elevation os 12,100 ft. above sea level! I almost gave up!
Looking around, we saw a magestic view of unmelted glaciers and flower-covered tundras and we sat down to savor the fruit of our labors!

We also went on the Coyote River trail, a 1-mile hike alongside of Colorado river which boasts of wildlife and moose crossing. Well, what I ended up getting was mosquito feasting on me and no sight of a single mammal. That night, I itched and itched and became "Sleepless in Colorado".The kids, mama and baba had a blast walking and playing in the Colorado River, and Caleb even had a little accident using his treking pole! We had to 'baptize his knee' in the river!
Moses had his helpers Aaron and Miriam to assist him in crossing the Red Sea. Here Papa Mark also has his faithful sidekicks "Abigirl and Caleboy" ~ and the 3 of them crossed the Colorado River!
