2nd Golf Scramble Ever: Part II

Here's a great view of Denver in the distance. As the day progressed, we were met with some cloudy conditions with some sprinkles and light rain. Nothing to get off the course over.
Me lounging in the golf cart. Mike and I shared a cart. He has a plethora of knowledge concerning the game. I really learned a lot through out the day. That combined with my trip to Rochester in June where I rode along with my golfing co-workers 3 times, has really improved my understanding of the game.
Here is Rick, one of my team-mates, preparing for a put. We played "best ball" on this scramble and Rick's ball was the best on this hole. Sharon is in the background probably preparing for her turn to putt. Rick is Sharon's brother.
Here's my cart-mate, Mike, winding up for his put. Aren't the clouds interesting in these photos. At one point, some clouds built up over one of the far peaks and it looked like a volcano smoldering.

Tiny Town, CO Part II

I enjoyed walking around the outer perimeter of Tiny town taking these pictures through the fence. Unfortunately, it is only open on Saturdays and Sundays during the months of May and September.
Trinity in front of the main sign. We walked around taking lots of pictures. People probably wondered if she was the new 24 hour surveillance the way she was sniffing around.
There is a life size train located in the parking lot for Tiny town. I thought you train lovers might like a picture of it, and Trinity is my favorite model:)
A blurry picture of me and Trinity that shows how much fun we had. I think Trinity was mainly just happy to be out of the car and I was happy that even though I couldn't find the trail-head, I found something equally interesting to photograph.

Tiny Town, Colorado Part I

In search of a trail head that remains elusive, I wandered across this little gem tucked away in the Rocky Mountain Foothills. Located off of US 285 and S. Turkey Creek Road, the prices are great and so is the entertainment for little ones.
Wow, established in 1915! This place has been around for a long time. I wish I had known about it when my own niece and nephews visited a few years ago.
Here is a sample of the little buildings that are on the property. Some of tiny town buildings are replicas of real locations in Colorado.
A railroad crossing for the minature railroad you can take a ride on. I think the train ride is $1. I think that's a pretty good deal.

Trinity At Park

Took Trinity to nearby park today to work on socialization and give her a chance to stretch her legs. She played a little bit on the playground too.
Nice Kitty....I like the curves and shapes in this photo. Trinity humored me and posed with the mountain lion statue.
