Pueblo

We have been in Pueblo Colorado for half a month now and I have only eaten their famous green chili three times (I am sure I will get much more of it before we leave). Brad has been busy in the ER here, he almost acts like a real doctor there since they aren't used to having students. I have enjoyed being able to go running (leaving Charly with Grandma) and having the beautiful mountains as my backdrop.

When we first got here we decided to take Brad's parents motorcycles and ATV out for a spin up in the mountains by them. The snow slowed us down a little but it was still lots of fun. This little cabin was near the end of our trail, that would be an amazing place to stay.

We also went and walked around the reservoir, I had heard so much about it I finally had to take a look for myself.
Yeah that is Pikes Peak in the background there.
Seeing who is better at skipping rocks
Charly wanted to try too

Down on the Arkansas River they have the longest mural in the united states (that is at least what Brad claims)
There is also a kayak course that they have set up that someday I totally want to go down.

Here is a little taste of what I see on my morning runs
This I learned is Walking Stick
And this is Rabbit Brush

How long are you guys there for? I'm so excited that you guys are back in CO. Your photos were gorgeous as always. Good for you for running... I need to get back into it too. Wanna run another race together?!
