Boulder Flatirons

Today was another fun filled day! We headed up to the Flatirons in Boulder... about a 30 minute drive for some hiking! All in all we were out there about 4.5 hours... did ~7 miles (?)... We took with us Finn and wore him out! It was a beautiful trail! We were both amazed at the number of different berries and fruits growing wild! There were signs posted to be alert because bears are stockpiling for the winter and we could understand why!! After our hike we were starving, so headed into Boulder where we ate at a place that's a local favorite, the Walnut Brewery! Great food!!! It really hit the spot! We then stopped at Phil's latest favorite coffee shop ... Amante.. an Italian espresso bar on the main drag! Good time! We'll sleep good tonight! :) I actually got some pictures from our camera this time!
Snow on the mountain peaks!

Wild flowers were growing all along the trail

We forgot our mini-tripod... so a rock worked just fine!
