Wednesday, July 9th, 2008
Look familiar? It should because it’s the picture I used to make my header. Dalton and I traveled over Rabbit Ear Pass to get to Steamboat Springs, Colorado back in May, before we moved here.
Rabbit Ear’s Mountain Range runs east and west just south of Steamboat and is a spur of the Front Range [...]
A Guide for Elk Hunting
Monday, July 7th, 2008Elk Hunting in Colorado is one of the most ultimate dreams of any hunter. Many fortunate hunters every year from out of state pay big bucks to outfitters to make this dream come true. While that is one alternative to fulfilling your dream, another is a ‘do it yourself’ hunt.
One of the first things [...]

The lowing of the cattle could be heard long before the pounding of the hooves on the pavement as the Cattle Drive through downtown Steamboat began. One hundred and ten pairs of long-horned cattle were herded down the street as onlookers waited in anticipation. Dressed in our slickers and cowboy hats, Dalton and [...]

Romick Arena was packed and it was the largest turnout I’ve ever seen there. Half the people there weren’t from Steamboat. Dalton and I had ’standing room only’, and I guarded our spots faithfully. I had one run-in with some yuppies, I had been yuppied! Yes, yuppied!! You’d think that was some kind [...]
Steamboat Ski Jump

Sometimes its best just to keep your mouth shut…
Dalton and I went to the Howelsen Hill Ski Jump following the parade in Steamboat, I got a couple of photos and then…..my camera went down. Maybe it was overheated from taking so many pics at the parade …whatever. I only got a couple of shots. [...]
Steamboat Parade
Saturday, July 5th, 2008Festivities were set to begin at 10am and we got there at 9am, the day was going to be a beautiful one, partly cloudy with lots of sunshine. I was very surprised at the magnitude of this parade for being in a small community of less than 10,000. They really poured a lot of [...]

Fish Creek Falls
Sunday, June 29th, 2008This is the most awe-inspiring place I have ever been. To achieve this, you have to hike 5 miles up steep, rocky paths, along side of cliffs which I thought I’d never do being afraid of heights, to reach the pinnacle of this trip. The falls at the bottom are pictured first, you only [...]

Yeah…say that title three times fast! LOL
What better way to spend a Friday evening after dinner, walking down landscaped paths, smelling sweet fragrances, feasting your eyes on gorgeous floral arrangements and swatting mosquitoes every two seconds? So what if our pace was a little quicker than we wanted in order to avoid getting [...]

It’s coming up on our one month anniversary for living in Steamboat Springs. At first, I was appalled that everything here seemed to be geared towards tourists, not newcomers. But that stands to reason, this small, isolated community thrives on the business tourists bring to the area. The city is also known as [...]
