Very soon I will be in beautiful Colorado, visiting my best friend. To say that I'm excited is an understatement. I'm ecstatic! If you only knew what awaits me, you'd understand. I only get to see my best friend maybe once a year, so this is a treat to get away and hang out with her for a week. (the scenery is a plus too) This trip is kind of a "last hurrah" so to speak. She's getting married in July, so this is our time to spend together without wedding stresses...just having fun and hanging out. It will be a blast!
In case you haven't been to Colorado before, I've included a few photos to give you a taste of what's in store for me. Ok, so maybe I just put them up to make you jealous, but either way, you can't deny the breathtaking beauty that is Colorado.
Mount Garfield (which, I am told, we are going to hike this trip!)
Rifle Gap (where we went fishing last year)
The view from my best friend's house. (yeah...I'm jealous too)
The walkway leading to Hanging Lake (which, unfortunately, will be closed this trip, due to trail maintenance).
The trail at Hanging Lake. That's what I call hiking!
Mt. Sopris, still covered in snow!
Aaaaahhhhh! I can't wait to be there! I predict another movie-esque scene of me running from the plane to the terminal to meet my best friend and giving her a HUGE hug! I wish we didn't live so far away. Alas, I guess I will just continue to convince myself to visit her in that dreadfully gorgeous place. I won't lie...I don't have to do much convincing. :)
If you haven't had the blessed chance to visit this beautiful state, you should definitely put it on your to-do list for 2010. You won't regret it! (and no, I wasn't paid any money by the Colorado Tourism Industry)
After my Colorado trip, I will head to the forgotten country of Moldova. Whilst there, I will be blogging and posting plenty of photos, so be on the lookout! (Excuse me while I return from the 13th & 14th centuries....who knew I'd travel so much in a blog. "Alas" and "whilst"...wow.)
