A Day To Ourselves

Today was ATV day - that's right, we took the day off and headed out to ATV!

It's been a crazy couple of weeks for Glenn as he was trying to finish the last of the outside projects on the house for the final outdoor inspection.  I think he actually did a lot more than what was required but it was things that had to be done anyway!!  The outside chimney and bottom of the house are not only completely rocked but also grouted - it looks fantastic!!  He also got the new shingles on the back of the house sprayed with the finish and they look great too!

So this morning we packed up the ATV and headed to the national forest outside of Florissant - we had a fun day just riding around and enjoying nature!!  It's still sad to see all of the dead trees from the fires but they do make for neat pictures!!

 They sky was very hazy today - there was a lot of wind that was blowing in smoke from the Ca., NM, and Az. fires.

 We stopped for a nice picnic lunch mid-day and sure enjoyed driving on the trails!  Since we didn't get to do much last summer, it was very special!

Now a couple more days of work and then we're headed for our first camping trip this year in Colorado - can't wait!!
