Camping in Colorado

June 26-July our family went camping in Montrose Colorado. Those who came were: Todd, Mary, Greg, Madi, Troy, Pam, Lauren, Logan, David, RoseMarie, Trent and Nichole. We stayed at a campground on the western slope of the Rockies called Pleasant Valley.

During our time there, we were able to relax and enjoy one anothers' company as well as some recreational activities. On Saturday, Todd & Troy took their bikes out for a ride to the Black Canyon National Park (about 18 miles from the campsite). The girls (Pam, Mary, Madi and myself) were driven by Trent to the National Park to meet the boys. Once they arrived the six of us went out on a 9 mile bike ride around the park.


On Sunday we all went for a picnic down in the base of the Black Canyon. The boys took their fishing rods and after lunch went down the river to test out their fishing skills. Unfortunately they were unsucessfull in catching anything.

Monday was another relaxing day. The boys decided to try fishing one last time. However, they were still unable to catch any fish.

In all it was a very relaxing vacation full of good times with family.
