Sorry about the total blog neglect but I've been alive and well here in CO for the past seven months!
Quick review of the past few months:
I learned a new sport: skiing!! My friends Kim and Randon (among others) have been the most amazing personal ski instructors and I could not be more thankful for them. We had the opportunity to ski all over Colorado - Breckenridge, Vail, A-Basin, Keystone and Eldora. The season ended with a powder day at Vail - absolutely fantastic! Skiing, snowshoeing, sledding...I am officially hooked on winter sports :-)

Spring and summer have brought a myriad of new adventures. I traveled quite a bit in May (East Coast and California) and ventured to Italy and Switzerland for work in June. Finally, July and August are Colorado months! This state has really allowed me to appreciate the beauty of seasonal change. Those mountains that I loved to ski in winter are now my summer playground. From camping at Wellington Lake with my cousins to hiking with friends in the Fraser Valley over the 4th of July (we hiked in snow due to the late seasons this year - quite the surprise!) to discovering one of Colorado's most picturesque hikes (Hanging Lake) to Rockies games galore to Wash Park BBQ's, the summer adventures have been non-stop and I'm loving every minute of it.

Also, I'd like to say a quick thank you to all of our visitors in 2011. Each and every one of you has made our Denver home feel well, a little more like home :-) Thank you for the love, thoughtful house-warming/California gifts and wonderful memories. Can't wait for more in the future!
You need to remove the photo of hanging lake where you are walking on the log. If you can't touch the water you shouldn't be showing the world that photo and encourage other to do the same. That kind of publicity will ruin this high traffic natural wonder.
