Every now and then, I gotta do the "tourist" thing. So, I took my youngest daughter with me on a quick cage trip up to Estes today. It was the first time up the mountains for the Impala, so I kinda pushed the envelope to see what it could do...I'm not dissatisfied one bit.
Anyway, so there's always something to look at in Estes. And, with the major tourist season done, today's stroll was quite pleasant. Ever been through that tunnel between the Visitor's Center and the riverwalk? The tunnel is finally lit and there's some interesting art work on both entrances...
The river is low, but that's expected with winter around the corner. Still, you can find beauty at each turn...
One of my favorite restaurants, only because of the looks from the outside. I've never eaten here and it's either closed for the season, or closed for good...
For some reason, this turn and view along the walk always makes me stop and stare. I like it in summer with the trees full of greenery, but today, it's still got that something...
