2008 BD

In 2008 BD (Before Denny) Mom, Dad and I went on our first ever vacation together. We rented a cabin high up in the Rockie Mountains in Colorado. The scenery was breathtaking and so was the lack or air - or so Mom and Dad said. The high altitudes really took a toll on them - but not me - I was a Rocky Mountain explorer dog and LOVED it. We would go adventuring in the mornings with me wearing my Outward Hound Back Pack and then spend the afteroons just snoozing by the fire. Our cabin overlooked the lake and just a few minutes down the road was a little town that looked like a little bit of Switzerland. There was little Swiss chalets and the stores and restaurants all had that Swiss vibe going on.

  2. that must be a wonderful place. But isn't it better to share it with Denny? Even the swiss girl named Heidi had her friend named Peter... and it's better to be not alone if you meet a bear or a wild goat :o)
