another day off

most of our days off and little trips out of town as of the last year are really pondpatrol missions.

this is a great situation most of the time, and today was one of those days. a perfect compromise.
we headed towards boulder late this morning to go to eldorado springs area - we ended up a few miles east of 90.
we hiked up half a mile or so and found the area gio was hoping for - a clearing that looked out onto the foothills in the background.

in the moment of shooting p.p. i hardly notice the time go by... but i did get a little crispy today!
we were near a main path that a lot of boulder business lunch time walkers seem to frequent. lots of comments were made.

two women walked by - the comment was "oh look at them playing with their dolls!"
i would like to officially say that they are gio's dolls - he just lets me play with them when he's around!

ok....if you look real closely you can see the ants from the ant hill that gio parked the dolls on top of crawling all over the boots...... not to long later the ants were all over these poor boys!

after two and a half hours in the sun we were ready for the second half of the day!
we weren't sure if we were going to venture over to eldorado springs pool or to boulder creek - but we came prepared with tubes for floating!
we ended up at boulder creek, we floated for a little more than an hour. we didn't do the rapids float due to the cold water and it's effects on o brasilerio. but floating in the tube with the sun shining down on us - me soaking in the rays - gio staring at fishys & shiny things was perfect!

last stop in boulder? but of course the hot dog stand that has veggie chicago dogs!

all in all a great day off!

Gostei muito deste post porque és uma pessoa incrível.
Quanto mais te conheço mais a admiro, pelo carinho,companheirismo e porque não dizer cumplicidade com o Gio.
This hot dog is very good.
