Colorado Trip, Day 1
Rocky Mountain National Park

We drove from Morrison to Boulder where we visited the Laughing Goat coffee shop and the Celestial Seasons Tea Factory. Then we drove to Nederland via a cool canyon road, and then headed through Rocky Mountain National Park, past Grand Lake, and back back to Morrison.

Note the caption "Never Summer Mountains". Certainly lived up to it's name! ;)
