The lodge was incredibly beautiful. The view from the balcony of downtown Estes Park was gorgeous:
As was the view from our room:
I heard rumors that we had a bear outside the hotel room this morning.
Today I spent some time with my cousin Jerry, who lives in Estes Park. He has a great place just off the lake, overlooking the golf course.
We had a blast, took the Jeep up to the park. It was COLD!
The road was closed part way up so we turned around.
The scenery was breathtaking:
We saw some wildlife, including a white elk - a good luck omen???
I had a great time hanging out and relaxin' with my cousin. Thanks, Jerry!
On the way out of town, I couldn't resist taking photos of the elk that had wandered onto the golf course:
Just play through:
If you look closely, I think you can see my cousin's place just through the trees on the right...
What a great weekend!
