Beautuful Colorado aka our Back yard

We took our first family hike yesterday and
had so much fun we went back for more today!

About a mile from our house there are many
trail heads some more challenging than others
so we started with a nice easy (all up hill)
beginner and it was perfect dogs stayed right
along side, up at the top an old mine The Sally
Barber the sand was a glimmering gold which I now
know is FOOLS GOLD it was Beautiful.

These mines are all over abandoned and give you a
real sense of the history that was once there.
The trail had a Stream that was right along side
the whole way up and gus had a few dips while Zoey
preferred a Snow patch to roll around and cool herself
off.

Today we went back and took a very easy hike and came across another
abandoned mine this one was surrounded by water a dredge maybe? We could
not figure it out. The hike was easy and we ran into a few of our neighbors
on the trail ( we recognized their dog) We now know them by name!

Back to work tomorrow I actually have great news I am pretty sure I have a
new Job and its at a floral Shop in town called Bloom 30-40 hours a week and
I will still be working at Ember! Hope it all works out fingers and paws crossed.

Here are some pics of our hikes .....
