Last week we headed up through Wyoming and had a blast. We arrived back home just in time to head to Denver to pick up my brother, Al, for an action packed few days together back here in Steamboat. I hope it was as fun for him as it was for us!
Bro and Liz - we're out for a quick hike near Stagecoach Lake Park
Mother Nature can even decorate a fence in Colorado
Our adventures included: Stagecoach Lake Park, Clark General Store, Steamboat Lake Park, Crusing "The Boat," Otto, E3, Mignons of Beef al la Stanley, Margaritas, Cache le Poudre, CR-27, Palomino in Loveland, and did I mention Margaritas and...of course...chasing the stags of Sandwash Basin. Whew!! You're the best bro ever...many thanks!
Since we made multiple trips to Denver International, we spent the night near there. On our trip back we scouted Fort Collins. It has much to offer in the way of quaint Colorado beauty!
Near College and Mountain (street names)
We walked around town after a great breakfast on the square
Straight From the Horses Mouths
By now you know we have this thing about chasing wild horses around in the wasteland. In fact we've now included the horses of southern Wyoming in our hunt. Rather than try to narrate a blow-by-blow of our chases, we decided to go one better. We rented a long range microphone so we could eavesdrop on these wild critters and get a better idea of 1) what they're thinking and 2) what they have to say. The results were more than we could have hoped for. Here...you have a look and listen for yourselves.
"Just two of a kind...lookin for a full house."
We're The Three Musketeers...why do you ask?"
"Good afternoon! I'm your host, Homer Horse. Welcome to Rock Springs"
"Meet the Homer Horse Herd"
"Rough Day"
" Ri-CO-la!!! "
"This is some cool weed, Dude; I've got the 'munchies'"
"You ain't gonna believe this!"
"Okay, okay...just take the darn picture and leave me alone."
"For the life of me...I can't figger what all the fuss is about..."

"Okay, wise guy...think you're so tough...prove it!"
"I feel like we're just dancin' around the issue..."
"HEY...we said no eye-biting!!!"
"I feel like you're always talking down to me!!"
