Summer in Aspen is a paradise. Just ask any one one the street. Everyone is glowing with joy, especially after the long winter (for the locals) and the lucky guests of the town are thrilled to be here. People are biking, horseback riding, rafting, hiking, shopping and dining al fresco. I have always called it, "Camp Aspen". Ahhh to be outside and smell the mountain air on crisp mornings. Besides all the physical activities, There are all the cultural and intellectual events. The Aspen Institute, Anderson Ranch Arts Center and the Aspen Museum are a few of the venues to expand your mind. Jazz Aspen, this spring featured Sheryl Crow, Jennifer Hudson, and Susan Tedeschi. All in my backyard. It is hard to pick and choose from all the daily options. If you don't believe me... check out this site www.absolutelyaspen.com to see all activities in this tiny mountain town. It is really astonishing.
I thought I would share some of the beautiful sites of the town.
The Roaring Fork River
Always a Rainbow.
4th of July
The Motorcycles always lead the parade
The firetrucks are always a fav
Dogs are always invited to the party
The Aspen Yacht Club is a hidden paradise
Watching the Regatta from the Kayaks
Out on the trail
Bushwhacking down the cattle trail
Happy Happy Summer!
