FALL in love with Colorado

Ok, FALL is one of the most stunning times of year here in Colorado. At the end of Sept. beginning of October the aspen trees turn the most magnificent shades of bright yellow and gold! A few days ago we took a late morning drive up near Sugar Loaf mtn. to a lovely trail/dirt road called the Switzerland trail. The honey husband rode his mountain bike last weekend on this trail and wanted to take us on it (although we were in the Rover, going bumpidy bumpidy bump). It was GORGEOUS. The picture above was taken on the road to Gold Hill, a cute little mountain town not far from the city of Boulder, from Peak to Peak hwy. We stopped at the General Store in the o'l mining town and bought ourselves a little lunch. We had home made chicken pie and killer gluten-free apple and strawberry pie (for me). It was yummy!
