Family Vacation - Estes Park

For the first time in nearly 5 years I got back to Estes Park and the Rockey Mountains, someplace that I have always and will always cherish. More importantly though it was a family vacation. There was 12 of us roaming around and perhaps one of the last times, even though I hope to be wrong, that we all will be able to coordinate a trip such as this.

My mother was brilliant at making sure that it was planned to ensure that we all got to do nearly everything together (very hard to do and keep everyone happy) but also planned to where we didn't feel that it couldn't be enjoyable and relaxing. Lets face it part of the reason we go to the mountains is to find peace of some sort and relax; at least I do.
