Actually forgot to take a photo today (Friday). I took this as soon as I remembered Saturday morning.

Breckenridge, Day 9

August 8th, 2009

So, today is my last day, I’ll be waking up at the butt-crack of dawn (actually before) to get to Denver for my 8:30 flight. Gross…
If I wasn’t so sore from yesterday I might have ventured out on another hike, but it was kind of nice to just take it easy on my last day. [...]

Breckenridge, Day 8

August 7th, 2009

Okay, today we REALLY kicked our own asses, but it was very worth it. We ended up hiking the trail to St. Mary’s “Glacier” (it’s a permanent field of snow, not an actual glacier). I’m glad there was a nice payoff after climbing the rocky trail to the base of the “glacier” because this sign [...]

Breckenridge, Day 7

August 6th, 2009

Another kind of slow day today. We had to do a few errands this morning and then I headed back up to Chipmunk Mountain (also known as Sapphire Point). Some weather was rolling in though, so I didn’t spend too much time there. Though I do think I spotted the bald eagle again, but he [...]

Breckenridge, Day 6

August 5th, 2009

Today was a little slow, John had a couple rehearsals for the orchestra so I was left a few hours to kill on my own. I decided to drive around to some places immediately around Breckenridge. First I went off to Valley Brook Cemetary (a bit morbid, I know, but it was interesting).

Breckenridge, Day 5

August 4th, 2009

This morningĀ I listened to the brass quintet group that John’s a part of while working for the Breckenridge Music Festival which was very fun. We were moving a bit slow today after our “intense” hiking yesterday (we’re outta shape okay!) and decided that site seeing from the car would be more ideal than wandering around [...]

Breckenridge, Day 4

August 3rd, 2009

So, we’ve got cute rodents covered; spotted this prairie dog in town early today…

Breckenridge, Day 3

August 2nd, 2009

So, we got up very early this morning and headed back to Chipmunk Mountain the hopes that maybe we’d see more wildlife (like an eagle!) in the early hours, and if not… CHIPMUNKS! We got a lot of cute chipmunk photos now and unfortunately nothing cool flew past us, but it was a very good [...]

Breckenridge, Day 2

August 1st, 2009

So, today we slept in a bit, (after getting up so early yesterday I know I needed it). Also, the altitude is making me a bit sleepier than I might normally be with the thinner air and all.
We decided to drive down towards Copper Mountain and ended up spotting this trail a bit south of [...]

Breckenridge, Day 1

July 31st, 2009

Got into Colorado today for my first day of vacation and it was an awesome first day! My boyfriend and I took our time getting from the Denver airport to Breckenridge.
