Hello Colorado

From the tallest sand dunes in North America to the Mile High City and in to the snowy Rockies

Let's get caught up

Slept in a Casino parking lot in Santa Fe, NM.
Day hike at the Great Sand Dunes National Park
- Tallest sand dunes in North America

Spent two nights in Manitou Springs

Snowboarded at Winter Park with some great friends
Parked in Granby for the night (my winter season hometown)

Now we are nestled in the Rockies (at about 9,000 ft) for one last night while Kristen sleeps off a cold. It's snowing right now. Tomorrow we head to Utah. I couldn't be more excited.

See y'all somewhere!
