The sun sunk below the Flatirons before we made it to Chautauqua Park in Boulder. Such a gorgeous location!
Looking down toward Boulder (to the north).
El Dorado Canyon State Park with Heather and Jen
Heather’s friend Jen showed us a really neat area called El Dorado Canyon. It is a popular state park for rock climbers just outside Boulder. The scenery is incredibly dramatic. Once I have my mountain legs about me, I plan to go back to do some of the hikes in the area.
Heather and Jen found a nice spot to sit on a rock by the creek.
Lots of puffy clouds in the sky today.
The creek would normally be much less full this time of year but with all of the thunderstorms of the last month, there is still a good bit of water running down the mountains.
Walking through the water.
Evidently I can walk on water.
VW Bus Sighting in Boulder
We saw these two neat old VW buses cruising around downtown Boulder on Pearl Street.
