We've never regretted for a moment our decision to pull up stakes in Columbus, OH and cross the Mississippi to another time and place. (We often miss those we left behind, though!)
Here in Denver, we're only minutes away from high mountains and always unknown sights and forces of nature. And most excitedly for me, thousands of geocaches!!!
Last week, we took an afternoon and drove up to Estes Park, CO to see what was happening with the little beggar Chipmunks at the highway entrance to Estes Park. We wondered where the elk might be grazing or just hanging out in town. Or, if the roadway through the Rocky Mountain Forest might be open. It's often closed to traffic due to high winds or a snow storm!

| This elk was grazing all alone beside the highway at Estes Park. He took a moment from his busy schedule to pose for a photo. |
After feeding the chipmunks some really special peanuts from Five Guys, and making a sweep of the town for the elusive elk, we stopped to hunt for a couple geocaches on the radar!
Marys Lake 2 was worth the climb and few minute search as we kept walking past it.

| OK. This is a spoiler blog...Here's the Marys Lake 2 cache! Very nice one indeed. Lots of swag inside, and we left some of our favorite swag! |
Take Care on the Journey,
