I was fortunate to have Juneteeth off and do some playing in our own backyard. Alana and her daughter joined me for a morning hike and then Tanner met us at the Eldorado Springs Pool to cool off and have a picnic lunch. The pool had been closed for several years and it finally reopened last August and I had really been wanting to go! The entry fee wasn't cheap, but it was a beautiful vista and great day to be at the pool. They did a really nice job of keeping the original feel, but upgrading the amenities. Alana and I then wrapped up the afternoon with a trip to Sweet Cow. Yum!
After some down time at home, Marshall and I headed down to Music in the Park as this is the only one that I'll be able to make. It was a hot day so I was a little hesitant, but it turned out to be a gorgeous night and we actually found a shady spot. The Wrights joined us and it was a lovely way to wrap up a little staycation. It is not lost on me that this day is something that could easily be a vacation for many people - a trip to the mountains, hitting a historic pool and then wrapping the day up with ice cream at a cute little ice cream shop. It reminded me of the many vacations we took as a Karlen family and here I am fortunate to just have this an outing 20 minutes from my home.
