July 9, 2010Categories Random, Summer, Travel1 Comment on Oh Rocky Mountains, how I adore you.

The past few days my parents and I have been hanging out in the Rocky Mountains. Left the day after I arrived in Denver. We're staying in a really nice hotel lodge that would be totally cool if it had wifi everywhere and not just the lounge. /pout We visited the town that my family…
