Memory Day: Snapshots

This picture was taken 6 years ago today, on August 17, 1026.

We were on our Colorado trip and thought nothing of waking up at 5 AM to hike high altitude trails throughout the mountains. The reason was twofold: parking lots filled up by 6 and staying too late into early afternoon usually meant getting caught in a thunderstorm.

This day, we went to the Glacier Gorge Trailhead and hiked 10.5 miles to Black Lake. Rebecca looked stylish and wore all of her finest European hiking gear, while I rolled through in this outfit which, in 2022, has become my "lawncare around poison ivy" look.

In the afternoon, we went to Rock Cut Brewery where Rebecca bought an all-time faovurite swag shirt, then had dinner involving elk sausage at The Rock Inn.
