Fall Colors

On Saturday we drove up into the mountains to look at the Aspens changing colors. It was really cool to look up and see a mountain full of green evergreens mixed with splashes of gold Aspen. They call them Colorado Gold and I can totally see why! We took Cody with us since we'd be gone for most of the day. He did really well until we stopped for a picnic lunch. That's when he forgot that he's 11 1/2 years old and decided to run around like a puppy. He got into everything! He was running up the hill and practically rolling down it as it was pretty steep. Then he found a huge pile of horse poop and decided to roll in it. He was disgusting! David had to march him over to a lake and wash him off. Then he was banished to the car while we finished lunch. Crazy dog! It was pretty funny to watch David holding him by the harness and forcing him to walk next to him. Here are some pictures of the Colorado Gold.
