Camping!

We went camping at Grand Lake last weekend. I had a race in Winter Park and we packed up the kids and camping gear and left the hot front range. It was beautiful. We camped just below the Continental Divide.
Does this tent look familiar? This is our family tent that is approaching 20 years old. The bags for the tent and in shambles, but the tent is still perfect. Thanks Mom & Dad for buying a nice tent when you did! Check out the scenery!
We had a not-so-close encounter with a moose. He was about 15 yards away from us (we were by the pine trees in the picture). He growled (loudly exhaled) and we left him alone. I waiting until we were away to snap a bigfoot-like quality photo. I guess they hate dogs, since wolves are their natural predators. We weren't going to stick around to settle the feud.

Sunset. The winding river in front of our site led to the lake. Pretty.


Job Well Done.

As we were leaving, we said "goodbye" to Beauregard, but he wasn't too keen on staying alone... Of course we took him with us. Although...

Your test does not look familiar to me.
Should it?
