Spontaneous Exploring

Back in the end of September the hubby, a friend, and I went for a drive to the mountains. We started out driving through Beulah and drove the dirt road that goes over the mountain and comes out in Rye. If you ask me, it is much better than driving the interstate to get to Rye. But ya know... thats just me, I love being near the mountains and being able to explore them after a short drive.

So after we get to Rye, we stopped at Bishop's Castle (Its this awesome place a man built himself... don't worry I'm going to show you) and then we drove on to the Westcliffe area. We got out to an area I don't remember after that. We found a hiking trail in a burnt part of the forest and followed in until we got to Spruce Creek and then went home because we were very tired after our trip.
