Colorado National Monument

This extraordinary natural landmark is only 100 miles from home...
yet in 12 years we had never visited!

It's a beautiful national park - in the style of a desert canyon - with a scenic drive to get you from one end to the other. But when you get out and hike, that's when you really get to see the beauty of the nature all around you.

And what better way to get the most of a short hike than a ranger-led digital photography scavenger hunt?!?! ☺

So when Mojo & Dado were in town last week, we took a day in the park to check out a few scenic overlooks and stop for a picnic lunch! Then on our afternoon hike (with a little guidance from Ranger Briana!) I handed over my 2 old digi cameras to Hamp & Sam.

So after sorting through dozens of random, blurry shots of rocks and sand and shrubbery, I found a few real beautiful photographs worth sharing. I really am so pleasantly surprised to see what they captured... ENJOY!
