There is not one part of me that regrets leaving my 8-5 hospice RN job for a hospital job, one where I work 2-3 nights a week. That leaves so much free time to enjoy this lovely summer, my fantastic family, and one of the most gorgeous places on Earth (in my opinion).

| View from my hospital, paying the bills and taking the pics. |
 |
| When city bound, we hit the public pools. |
 |
| Or the local resevoirs |
 |
| We hit the jackpot by making wonderful friends who let us rent their property in Salida, CO. |
 |
| We go there a LOT. This is the view from the front porch |
 |
| Salida is a whitewater rafting hub. It SO makes me want to learn kayaking! |
 |
| This weekend we were surprised to find a carnival in downtown Salida. |
 |
| And we thoroughly enjoyed it! (You can see my husband and daughter waving) |
 |
| We celebrated Father's Day |
 |
| because Mike is such an awesome dad. |
 |
| And we celebrated my birthday |
 |
| Where I spent the morning on a solo hike up a 14er |
 |
| It was AWESOME. |
 |
| In the Rocky Mountains, I sometimes pretend I'm Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music....the Hills are Alive! |
 |
| I can't begin to tell you how much I love this state. |
 |
| I look forward to a summer FILLED with adventures! |
