colorado summer vacation: part 2

As a combo trip of celebrating our anniversary, visiting with SweetP's Aunt who was in the state for a conference before her move out of the country, and an attempt to escape some of the summer time heat, we headed to Aspen, CO for a couple of days.   It was a lot of fun and man was it gorgeous.

I got a kick out seeing this image on our GPS as we were heading up Independence Pass.

At the top of Independence Pass.  It was a wee bit chilly compared to the high 90's we had been experiencing just hours prior.

Love this pic of SweetP, my awesome sister-in-law, and me in Snowmass, CO.

Pretty view of a river on our walk on the trails near our resort in Aspen.

SweetP and her daddy having a bit of a giggle-fest.

Took a Gondola ride up Aspen Mountain.  First time ever on a Colorado ski slope (sad, I know having lived 20+ years in CO).  None-the-less, amazing views and fun ride.

See what I mean about the amazing views?  Little did I realize I'd be seeing amazing views like this once we arrived here in Alaska...but even more of 'em.
