Colorado National Monument

November 28, 2009

On our last day in Colorado Grandpa took us on a drive through the Colorado National Monument which is about 10 minutes from his house.


It's a pretty drive and if you don't mind heights you will be just fine, I was scared to death the whole 2 hours but was fine every time we stopped at a look out.
It was cold and windy but a beautiful sunny day just the same. Some of the railings were a bit of a joke, I think the one in front of Emma and I in the picture below was just there so you would know there was a drop off. I just couldn't get that close.

Emma was so cute taking her cheeky monkey with her. She wanted him to see the sights and the snow too.
Auntie Bernadette came along too, so to enjoy a bit of time with her little Emma.
Peering over the edge was something I am just not good at but everyone else didn't seem to mind.
Donald got some great shots of the the monument. It was a great day for it.
On the way home Emma got REALLY hungry so Grandpa saved the day when he stopped at at store and brought out a banana for her and monkey to share. It was gone in a mater of seconds. I barely got these two shots in.
