Hiking Columbine Trail

This morning we did an early morning six miler. Beautiful views and a good work-out! We hiked an elevation gain equal to 66 floors! 18,000 steps!

Another spectacular sunset

God was painting the sky again tonight!

 

 

 

Flowering Thistles

Thistles blooming near our house. I'm sure there's an object lesson here! How could something so thorny produce such beautiful flowers?!

Hiking Palmer

Our iPhone app says we hiked an elevation gain equivalent to 49 flights of stairs. The views on the way up were breathtaking!

Brunch at Wisdom Tea House after our hike. Breakfast quesadilla, cinnamon scone, and French-pressed coffee!
