Heading up the mountains
in the background we stopped in a meadow
to check out the wildlife.
We made it up to the Tundra above the
tree line and hiked a short distance to
over 12,000'
Anthony filled out a booklet on the things
he saw and experienced in the park
and swore to protect our National Parks, it's
wildlife and all environments by doing such things
as simple as recycling.
He was congratulated by a Ranger.
And, received his Junior Ranger Badge.
We stopped at this lovely Catholic Church
on our way down, out of the park. There
was a lot of flood damage in this area
in 2011 and it won't be holding services
for another 10 years to be deemed stable.
We climbed up to the Jesus statue overlooking
this church.
Another picnic.
R & R for adults at Wade and Beth Payne's
home in Boulder.
Anthony and Tyler played a game of horse.
Addie and Gus with Grandma.
Beautiful sunset but unfortunately
a lot is because of the smoke from wildfires.
