Escape from Reality

---

Last week we took a road trip to Colorado. I don't want to call it a vacation as it was more an escape from reality.



We spent a week in the Rocky Mountains and Steamboat Springs social distancing at 7,000'. We hiked, we biked (some better than others lol and I think I will be healing up for awhile) and we even spent a day driving through Wyoming. It was a fantastic altitude adjustment.



Colorado is beautiful and magical. Every day was a different adventure. There is so much to do there! I felt like we could slow down and enjoy nature's beauty.

This town is so full of charm

Rabbit Ears Motel
A classic and charming piece of this town's history.
The Rabbit Ears Pass is a high mountain pass that is one of the most important transcontinental road links in the nation; it connects Steamboat to other parts of the state and is one of three crossings of the continental divide along US 40 Highway.

I love street art

The Laundry
Amazing food is served in this charming atmosphere. We were seated outside by a creek to enjoy our dinner and cocktails. Perfect date night.
