The family photoblog of Jeb, Stacy, and Simon Brees.
If anyone wants an original of any of these pictures, please let us know. The original is better than what you can download from this site.
We read about this State Park just to the East of town that we'd never heard of before. It's an old partially used quarry site that was donated to the state. Most of the trails are over solid granite. In the autumn the granite fields come alive with yellow confederate daisies. We went for a weekday hike and had a great time. Simon picked flowers, threw rocks, and we hiked across the granite and through the woods.
Stacy and Jeb spent a long weekend in Steamboat Springs. The first few days were rainy/snowy and we spent them wandering around town and cozying up to a fire with happy hot chocolate. The next few pictures are of a public trail along the Yampa River that we walked in the rain. The last two days of the trip were sunny and warm so you'll see some picture of us hiking.
