Snow bunny

One of my most favorite things to do upon returning home from a long weekend is looking through the photos to help recreate the entire trip. This year our destination was Denver Colorado! For some skiing, brews, hot tub, relaxing, and site seeing, oh and of course some really tasty eating. We hit up Snooze one morning and enjoyed a cup of there free trade coffee while we waited to be seated. They featured Cinnful pancakes, which tasted like heavenly goodness. Later in our trip we headed to the historic Rockmount Ranch wear shop. This is where the western shirt with the pearly buttons originated from. It was cool to see all the photos of celebrities and movies where these shirts have made there stamp in history. And of course we made a day of hitting the slopes in a little ski mountain town just outside of Boulder. The weather was perfect, the air clean, and the snow was fresh! What more could anyone ask for in a long weekend?

Other tasty places to dine while in Denver:

Samba Room- Cuban excellence
The Market- Deli, Bakery, & Espresso bar (try the California cappuccino)
Osteria Marco- Modern take on Italian classics

Ahhh....7 long days spent in the mountains, beaches, & Caribbean Islands does the mind and body good! I'm very much still in relax mode and hope it lingers for the remainder of the week! Looking through my photos has been almost as good as actually being there....well almost :)I can't think of a better feeling than coming back after a vacation with the feeling of gratitude, renewed energy, and a restful spirit. It is definitely in my plans to experience more travel this year. Here are some of my favorite shots from my travels.

I'm packing up my bag as I sit at my desk, double checking to make sure that my passport is in my bag. Tonight I head out with a small close group of family & friend to embark on a most exciting journey to the islands of the Caribbean! I've been looking forward to this trip for months now and I can't believe the day has finally arrived!! I'm going to have to pinch myself when I land in Miami this afternoon. This is a South Park character of me on vacation. Check out how to make your own here. Have fun and I'll see you back in one week with photos and stories from my travels ;)
