Every year, we always look forward to our fall trip to Taylor Reservoir. We stay in a cabin, visit Tincup (a little ghost town nearby), and go into Crested Butte for their annual Vinotok festival. It always marks the beginning of fall for us, and that is by far our favorite season! This year was particularly special, since it was our first trip with Drew (we missed last year's trip). It is usually timed perfectly so that we are able to enjoy the fall colors at their peak up there, but I think we were about a week early this year. Fall colors or not, I truly believe this is one of the most beautiful places on the planet -- being up there is just good for our souls.
I always like to get some pictures while we are in Tincup (the views from the old cemetery there are especially spectacular), and this year was no exception. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't really cooperating with us! It got super cold and started raining about 20 minutes after we got there, so we didn't get too many shots. I did, however, manage to get a cute one with both boys and both dogs, which I was pretty sure would be impossible! It turned out to be one of my favorites...I'm thinking it'll end up as a canvas on one of our walls. :)
Happy fall, everyone!
Once the weather turned cold and wet, Drew's mood quickly soured.
But a powdered sugar donut (and a warm car) can make ANYTHING better!
Enjoying the campfire on the last night...a perfect ending to a wonderful weekend!
