We went out for a nice April hike through Golden Gate Canyon State Park. We went up to Frazer Meadow and then on to Ralston Roost.

Frozen Dead Guy Days
We attended the Frozen Dead Guy Days in Nederland, Colorado to check out all of the death-themed events. Thanks to an old Norwegian grandpa left frozen in a shed, the town of Nederland has a wonderful reason to celebrate the end of winter every year. The first big event of the day was the hearse and coffin parade.
Who knew so many people in Colorado own hearses?
Ghostbusters is on the scene.
Some people had really elaborate hearses.
This one was for sale in case someone wants to own their very own hearse with flames down the side.
The purple cross is a nice touch.
Someone was in the back of this one.
I like the cow horns.
