Summer In Aspen

A beautiful Aspen Tree grove.

Jim and I just spent several days in Aspen for a business team building event. Not only has it been about 9 years since I have been to Colorado, I have never been during the summer months. We had spectacular weather to match the spectacular views

and the spectacular food. We stayed at the St. Regis at the bottom of the mountain. Alas, so much to do and so little time. We did have time to ride the gondola to the top of Ajax for lunch, take a white water rafting trip down the Arkansas River,

At the end of our ride on the Arkansas.

and fit in two rounds of golf,

Maroon Creek Golf Club

plus some walking, shopping, and relaxing. Oh yes, Jim had a little work mixed in there too. All in all, I think summer is my favorite time to visit the Centennial State.
