Fruita Reservoir





Callie and Dana and her brother, Michael and I went up to Fruita Reservoir today for a mountain hike. It was still a little chilly and windy, but we had fun getting lost and then finding our way back and enjoying each other's company. One of the pictures is Michael taking a picture of me while I'm taking one back. Fruita Reservoir is sort of a misnomer. It actually sits above Glade Park and there are three reservoirs. One thing I like, though, is that it is a half hour trip by car and up in mountains where the weather is cooler and a great escape from the heat. I do love the mountains. We didn't really hike too much because I took a wrong turn and got lost, so we had to back track, but once we where in the right place, it was terrific! I love having people to do this stuff with and who will so willingly go exploring with me. Callie always has a great time too. The greens I took a picture of we don't know what they are, but they are everywhere and just gorgeous to look at.

Ahhhh... how wonderful!! I wish I had been able to head up to the hills with you when I was visiting! I miss the mountains, still, every day. I love it when you show pictures of these hikes so I can go along vicariously! :)

(Sorry about the deleted first post! I made a teeny mistake in the text and thought I could edit it, but had to delete it instead.)

I wish you had been able to head out with me, too. The good news is I'm discovering all new places on my adventures and I love sharing them!
