Fish Tales


On Tuesday the kids and the three dads went fly fishing for six hours.  They were out of the house by 8:15am.  We were hoping the four girls were going to enjoy it because it was really the boys day out.   And... they all loved it!   Everyone caught a variety of trout with Elena leading the pack with 7!   Must have been beginners luck...

While the kids and dads were fishing the three moms went into the town of Estes Park and walked the four miles around Lake Estes and part of the Riverwalk.   It was so very grueling that we had to rest up at the local Mexican place and prevent scurvy.   I had a great, relaxing afternoon with two special girlfriends!

For dinner we drove to Lyons, the town on the way to Boulder, to meet up with Tina's cousin Greg and his wife Ingrid at a local brewery.   We loved learning about Greg's Computational Biology PhD and what he's doing now at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
