Rocky Mountain National Park

My boyfriend and I decided to go to Rocky Mountain National Park for the day. We also decided to go around the whole loop, not realizing it would lead to a two hour detour! So we ended up driving around for about six hours....initially expecting to drive for four. It was still fun! We saw pikas and marmots...I only saw the marmots because they're big and my eyesight is terrible. There also was a crazy caterpillar - it was so furry!

You can kind of see the marmot.

It was really neat to eat lunch above the tree-line and see everything! The mountains are really spectacular. I attempted to get some landscape shots. Landscapes aren't something I normally shoot but I could see myself getting more into it.

After leaving the park, we stopped so that Mark could pee. We ended up finding a gorgeous little river!

And then...we attempted to take pictures of ourselves because we can be pretty cute.

Sometimes we are just silly and not cute...at all. 

Not being cute.

Overall, I had a really great time. It was fun trying to take pictures of ourselves. There were so many obstacles like making sure the shutter went, crossing the river, not falling in. We definitely had an adventure! When we finally made it out of the mountains, we ended the day with some Chipotle (yum) and an old movie called Sabrina.
