One of my good friends from college got married last weekend. My hubby and I flew out to Colorado to be there for the weekend of festivities. It's always fun to see how traditional weddings differ from LDS weddings.. but that's a story for another day.
It was a full weekend; lots of fun and good company. I enjoyed it very much and I am very happy for my friend and I am so glad I could be there for her big day. But, I'll admit, by Saturday night, I was ready for an end to all the reveling.
My hubby and I stayed out there a couple extra days to enjoy the scenery and each other's company. Sunday morning dawned bright and clear and, after church, we drove up to Chatauqua Park in Boulder and went hiking in the mountains.
I'd forgotten just how pretty Colorado is! I love the Flatirons. I think the area is so lovely! As I was hiking and looking out over the valley from our lofty perch I found myself comparing this place to my more urban setting at home.... Boulder is a feast for the eyes and I wish I could hike in these mountains every day, but (forgive me, my Boulder friends) I can do without the town.
So, for overall scoring, Chicago still wins.. heh.
