we went up to the ski stations and in the national forests today .

we were lucky enough to see a beaver swimming along and its beaver dam. 3 eagles gliding up above the road, a marmoset that disappeared down a hole quickly., lots of Canadian geese.

Hope you are all ok, we are having a good time in Colorado. Xxxxxx
