The Cave Tour We Finally Took
[Glenwood Springs from up high : Taken by husband] I've been to Glenwood Springs many times but have never gone to the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park.

Spring Sunset
Last evening husband was grilling some (tender and juicy) steak for dinner and when I stepped outside to hang with him, the first thing he said was, "Look at that sunset!"

A Chilly Spring Morning
When I stepped outside this morning I was expecting clear skies and the air to be slightly warmer than normal but instead saw clouds and was bitten by the chill.
