Searching for Fall Colors

About a month ago Garrett and I went on a scavenger hunt for Colorado's famous fall colors. 

Turns out we went a bit early and the fall colors were not in full bloom yet. However, Colorado's regular colors are beautiful too. At the suggestion of a friend, we went to a park known for it's beautiful foliage, particularly in the fall.

I'll admit I was a little disappointed that the trees were all still wearing their green leaves, but we still had fun exploring and enjoying the nice weather.

We even stopped at a cute little Cherry Cider store on the way home.









Garrett loved the cider, me not so much. If you can believe this, which you won't, it was too sweet for me!

A couple of weeks later the fall colors were here but we didn't take another trip to see them. Kind of wish we had now!

It's Friday! Have great weekends!

  3. Beautiful photos!!! Ahh, I so admire that you live in CO!! I love fall and the colors - we lost SO many leaves with the storm last week, I think they'll only be hanging around for a few more weeks!
    Cherry cider sounds amazing...usually nothing is too sweet for me either, but I know what ya mean with sometimes things being too sickingly sweet!
    Hope you and the Mr. are having a fabulous weekend!!
