"the frenchies" - Ute Lodge & Trapper's Lake


One of our favorite side trips from Meeker was a couple of days spent "up river" in the Flat Tops Wilderness and a night at Ute Lodge! What a wonderful getaway into the mountains - we watched the hummingbirds fight over the feeder, played at the park, took a rowboat around the lake, caught crawdads, went for a little hike, had a great dinner of elk steak with our Ute Lodge friends, and best of all - played with the horses!


Paul-Alexandre was particularly fond of the horses - he couldn't stay away!
So when it came time to a trail ride he was SO excited!


A visit to Trapper's Lake and Lodge was the perfect stop before going home - a great lunch, more hummingbirds, some playtime in the river and a beautiful hike together!


It was an amazing week of adventures and friendship...

So amazing in fact, that if you simply didn't get enough from the last few posts - there are 200 pictures (yes, seriously!) uploaded here for your viewing pleasure! Check out every detail of our time together!!!

Seriously, it was a wonderful visit - such great time spent with old friends and such sweet time watching the boys make new friends! Here's to hoping we don't have to let 9 more years pass before we all get together again...
