Day 18 - Heading North

Today, we were able to sleep late. After breakfast, we packed two boxes with the rocks I've collected, some souvenirs and dirty clothes. We then found the nearest post office. We'd rather pay the post office to get this stuff home rather than the airline for overweight luggage. We then drove to Boulder and had lunch on a pedestrian only street with lots of neat shops. After that, we drove to Estes Park.  We were just driving through some beautiful country. On the way back, we passed three elk swimming in a lake. We pulled over and got some good pictures.

We were about 20 feet away from these guys.

Look at the antlers on him!

There are some areas where the leaves are turning.
