Fun in Castle Rock!
Today we got up early (some probably due to the time change) and got a start on a busy but very fun day. We toured all through Castle Rock and saw about everything you could see. We really like it here, especially the weather (dry but not too hot). There is a huge fire burning south of hear near Colorado Springs so you could smell some of the smoke and the mountains were a little obscured from the haze.
We hiked up Castle Rock (hence the name of the city) and looked out over the valley. It really brings back memories of being out west! 🙁 We sure miss it.
While on our hike we took a lot of pictures of each other, the scenery, and we even got some great shots of wildlife…
Yes, the picture above is real. It’s a zoom shot of the nesting area. You could hear the babies wanting their mom as she squawked as well. Pretty cool!
We are going to get some good sleep tonight! 🙂
