Our first hike was to three different lakes in the park and then we ended up driving Trail Ridge Road to get more of a feel of the Rocky Mountains.&#160; The hike was a little cold and foggy, but luckily it never rained or snowed for that matter.&#160; Then during the drive the clouds came and went so we actually got some decent views.&#160; We ended the day at a terrible Mexican restaurant, that only allotted one basket of chips per table.&#160; If you know me at all, you know I require at least two baskets!&#160; On the way to Grand Junction, CO we stopped for a quick ice cream treat.&#160; For seats they had saddles to sit on.&#160; It was a quaint little spot.&#160; Here are some pictures from day three.&#160;
