Denver, CO 2019

We stayed at an Airbnb in Denver and enjoyed walking around Denver each day of our trip. We had a bunch of delicious meals and some ice cream and played at the park near the Airbnb every day. We also visited the Tattered Cover bookstore.

Walking around downtown

We also went hiking west of Denver in Arapaho National Forest, and Kevin and James made it a little farther than me and Miranda and got to see St. Mary's Glacier.

Boulder, CO 2019

We stayed at an Airbnb in Denver, but we took a day trip to Boulder the first full day and walked around and then went on two small hikes.

We went hiking in two parts of Golden Gate Canyon State Park.

Then we went to a different snow-covered area


I don't like the look of this slippery drop


Picture before I make them turn around because I'm scared


See you soon, Boulder!

Preparation Canyon State Park, Iowa 2018

We went hiking in Iowa! Preparation Canyon was a former Mormon settlement, and hiking there you could see why they picked that particular area- really gorgeous and very different looking, at least different from the areas we're used to hiking around.

Into the corn!

Do you see me?

Sunday was a little too chilly for sunbathing, so we went for a walk along our town beach.
