Out with the old and in with the new happy mountain spot.

Even though we did enjoy our first stop today in the mountains, I think we did leave feeling like we needed something more.  With out discussion we drove to an area where Kip and I had hiked years ago (before kiddos).  We drove up and parked long side a stream.  We hiked, explored and took many pictures in the green, lush area.  It was so peaceful and this spot quickly became my new happy place.  The sound of the stream, the beauty and the company was exactly what we all expected from our day in the mountains.  We had so much fun, climbing rocks, exploring the hills, looking for stream trout and being together without interruptions, it was really difficult to pack up and head home.  I can still feel the peace and picture the beauty as I type.  I cannot wait to get back there again.  We are so blessed to live in Colorado and have so much beauty around us.
