Friday we decided to head to Red Rocks to check it out and do a little hiking. The weather was sunny and a bit cool, so pretty comfortable while you are hauling Boone around and hiking up hills. There weren't a ton of other people there, but you could tell that there were lots of people there doing their morning workouts. Everyone was climbing up and down the stairs. If I lived closer, it would be a fun place to go every once in awhile to do something different than normal running.
After we checked out the actual amphitheater, we took one of their short hikes around the area. It was a fun morning, and a neat place to check out. I'd love to actually see a concert there, but from what I can tell, the tickets for shows there are hard to come by.
After our hike, we went to lunch and went and checked out Golden for a bit. Then we picked up skis for John to use the next day when we all went skiing.
Overlooking the actual seating area
Uncle John had the task of carrying around Boone. It is harder than it looks. And Boone looks really tired! Ha!
At the top of the seats. You can see some people running the steps in the background.
More beautiful scenery.
On the hike.
Tired and almost done. You can barely see Boone in this shot.
One more beautiful shot.
A really pretty place and definitely worth the short trip out of Denver.
Had to get a picture in front of the big sign in Golden.
On the ski lift the next day! It was a cold day of skiing, but it was fun to ski with John.
After church on Sunday, we had just enough time to enjoy the sun and
beautiful weather with a picnic at the park. I think Boone really
enjoyed having his Uncle John around for a few days.
We love having so many people up to visit us and see the beauty that we are blessed to live near!
