Wow, in the entire time I've had this blog, I don't think its been this long since I've updated. This fall and then winter were very busy for our family, my daughter turned 1, we had a barrage of visitors from out of state to visit her, then after they left it was holiday season and we were busy making gifts and decorating our house. Then, just when things started to settle down, we all got sick. And it wasn't just a little sick either, I ended up with pneumonia, Magnolia had 2 ear infections and a horrible cold and my husband also caught the mess and was sick himself. The pneumonia was very bad and I ended up with complications that landed me in the hospital for 5 days. It was miserable. While I am not better yet, I'm getting there. This hike was done back in November, before all the illness began. We had planned on taking a small weekend getaway to Monument, Colorado and decided to hike the Palmer Lake Res Trail that took us to 2 reservoirs just outside of the town in the mountains.
