I really wanted to take the kids somewhere this year and see the Aspen trees in their fall colors and get some good pictures. Unfortunately this trip was not my strong suit since I have no idea where to go in the Mountains or hiking or really anything of that nature. I jumped online and took a look at a few things and thought - Poudre Canyon - that's not so far, we'll go there. The day I picked was a Sunday. So first it was off to church and Sunday school for me and Katelynn and then we rushed home so I could watch the Vikings Game. At about 2:30 / 3:00 we were heading out the door much to Dan's disapproval. He said it was too late to be heading up there and that it was a 2 hour drive. I blew him off and threw the kids in the car and said we are going. So off we went. We did get to Poudre Canyon within 45 minutes, but apparently where I wanted to go was about another hour and half drive, bummer. The kids were getting restless and Junior wasn't feeling very well. We eventually stopped and found a trail to attempt to walk in or I suppose "take a little hike" and get some pictures. Five minutes into our walk Junior says he really isn't feeling well and wants to leave. Shit. Dan and him walked back to the car and Katelynn and I quickly took a few pictures and then we drove home. What a bummer and waste of time in the car. I will try to plan this better next year I guess and leave earlier and only if the kids are feeling well. We did get some pretty pictures of Katelynn though.
