Family Portrait

 
 
A couple of family photos taken at the entrance and inside Rocky Mountain National Park on 23 August 08. To bad Cameron - working in NY - wasn't with us to complete the shot. In about 24 hours Kari is flying out to Honduras for her big two week adventure. Safe travels Kari.

Here's Michael and Kari showing their hiking style - pretty crazy - as they are about to so off to Honduras with their cameras, ideas and non-profit organizatioan plans. Watch out South America - "THEY"RE COMING".

Visit from the Kids

 
Colby, Kari and Michael Peters came up to Elk Creek Campground to see us before Kari and Michael departed for Honduras on their big adventure. We had a nice lunch and then set off for some Grand Lake sight seeing.
