Um. Maybe for someone who can actually breathe the CO air, perhaps; but for me? Still adjusting to the altitude and out-of-shape to boot? Let's just say it was a bit...challenging... But Kirby was very patient with me and took lots of pics every 2 minutes when I had to stop, gasping for breath. I will now post some of the pics. And please note the hella blue sky... that ain't no Texas sky, my friends :)
Before the hike: hopeful; naive
After 5 minutes of hiking at a slight incline
The rest of those are views of the Flatirons (which I can also see from my apartment) and then me and Kirby sitting in these stone chairs someone built up at the top. Also, I learned today, upon bragging to someone at work that I went to the "mountains" this weekend, that "those aren't the mountains; those are hills". Um. To this Texas girl? THEY'RE MOUNTAINS.

I'm so glad you're out exploring your new state, Sistah! Take advantage of the weather because it might snow in the next week or so ;-)
Wow. Snow. I say again...wow.
You look in your element, Lis! Wish I was climbing those mountains with ya!
Well come on up, and we'll go hiking :D
Oh my God! Could you be turning into Crunchy Lisa? Yay!
