The whole trip was amazing but the best part for me was the red rock amphitheater. I went in side the amphitheater and was amazed at the musicians that had played there. Our tour guide Will explained the history of the amphitheater. He was an incredible guide and so intelligent!

What a wonderful Sunday afternoon we had with Christen leading the way. My wife and I have always vacationed at the beach, year after year. It was time for something different so we opted for the Rocky Mountains. Thankfully I thought ahead and booked this excursion. It was the highlight of our trip to Colorado. What a beautiful state! Stop 1 was the Red Rocks Amphitheater. I have wanted to see this place since seeing U2 on MTV back in 1983 perform a live show there. Stop 2 was Echo Lake. The lake was frozen over and white but that did not disappoint us at all. The low cloud cover hid Mt. Evans from view at first. We had actually gotten back into the van when Christen excitedly beckoned for us to come quickly. The clouds had moved and the perfect photo opportunity was right there for me. I appreciated her enthusiasm so much. I am sure she has seen the magnificent view 1000 times but was so excited for us to be able to catch it at the perfect moment. Stop 3 was Evergreen. Nice little town. Got a much needed hot cup of coffee that hit the spot just right.
