Tree identification in Colorado can be difficult. I use this website to identify what i’m seeing.
Aren’t they pretty!?
Aspen
Psychics + Silver in Colorado
I’m in Aspen, Colorado. The shops in Aspen are gorgeous, I love walking around taking photos of all the high-end stuff. They are so great to check out when no one else is around. When I travel, I like to get up as early as possible and catch the best light around town. It’s amazing to see the history of some of these buildings. They are still standing from the 1800s. They are so attractive!
Mussels in the Mountains
There’s something very unusual about having mussels at 8,000 ft above sea level. And it was precisely this oddity which made the dish all the more appealing to me!
Elk at The Ritz in Aspen Highlands
Check this out! What an awesome statue outside The Ritz in Aspen. Absolutely gorgeous!
Charcuterie + Artisan Cheese Board at 8,000 ft
Wok charred spicy edamame, shishito peppers, garlic + sesame with a charcuterie + artisan cheeseboard at “The Living Room” in Hotel Jerome, Aspen. The room is warm + toasty (excuse the pun), it lends itself well to warming you up after chilly adventure in the mountains! As it happened, we had just returned from visiting The Continental Divide, and I couldn’t get over the mystical feeling I had from the sights of the snowy mountains. What a thrill sipping red wine and nibbling from this cheeseboard in a magnificent lounge at 8,000 ft elevation!
Sidewalk in Aspen
Me in Aspen. I’m standing outside The Wheeler Opera House + it’s adjoining bar “Justice Snow’s“.
Spring Water at 8,000 ft
So when we arrived at Hotel Jerome, in Aspen, we were given this little green drink. It’s actually what they call “ChlorOxygen” – It helps metabolize oxygen in your blood so you don’t get altitude fatigue.
Snow on The Continental Divide
Believe it or not, I’m standing 12,000 ft above sea level as I take this picture at the top of the Continental Divide in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.
