Mother's Day

Phase 1: S2, GC, and S accompanied Mom on a road trip to Estes Park, visiting St. Malo and Longs Peak along the way.
“The very reason for going to the mountains for camping is to camp in the mountains; to study them in their infinite moods, to understand their multifarious messages, their inexhaustible revelations, to read in them the remote past of the universe and ultimate destiny of the world; to realize our smallness in the presence of God’s power and magnificence; to emancipate ourselves from the muddy and slimy and stifling vicissitudes of city life and exchange it for a few breaths of pure oxygen that alone can add immerasurably to health of body and soul. There is no such thing as too much mountaineering just as there is no such thing as too much virtue.”
Founder of Camp St. Malo and St. Catherine's Chapel
Phase 2: Bird & Jim, a terrific cafe in Estes.
Phase 3: Colorado Cherry Company, Lyons.
