Sunday October 13

Today we rendezvoused with our daughter Jenn, Aaron and granddaughters Isabella, Emma, Sophie and Claire at Glenwood Springs Colorado. We left Moab UT and arrived there around noon just before they arrived.




We had lunch and then went to the trailhead for a hike to Hanging Lake. Isabella was taking note of the precautions.


This was a very steep trail rising 1,250 feet within about a mile and a half. We weren't sure if the girls would enjoy it but were surprised when they scampered up trail with eventually, the six year old in the lead!



There were some great views of the canyon and this marvellous little lake at the top with some cascading waterfalls.




Here we all are at Hanging Lake.


The trip back down was a bit slippery but we all made it, albeit a bit tired.




The sun came out again and illuminated the Colorado River.


We checked into the Hotel Glenwood Springs, got settled and then went out to a Brewpub for supper. After returning to the hotel, it was time for some water fun in the indoor water park.





Four exhausted girls were out cold by 10:00 pm.
