Lance and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Aspen last weekend. We ate, drank and relaxed! It was idyllic! The town is not very busy this time of year which was nice because it was not crowded.
This is the town of Aspen... the slopes were not open yet and I believe most of that snow you see is natural. Aspen Mountain opens on Thanksgiving Day.
We did go up to the
Maroon Bells Wilderness Area on Saturday. It was literally like a post card. For my birthday Lance gave me a remote control for our camera. This way you can set the camera up on the tripod, set the self timer but then use the remote control to fire the picture. This is perfect so you don't have to press the button, then run and place yourself in the photo with hair, shirt, etc normal looking. It was really fun! The best $40 we've spent in a while! So all the pictures of us were taken by us!! You can even see the gadget in his hands in a couple of the photos.
