On our last full day in Colorado, we took a little day trip to Ouray, Colorado (The Switzerland of America). The drive was on the Million Dollar Highway which felt like we were driving on the edge of a cliff the whole two hours.
The views were breathtaking, but I was terrified! I was trying to be brave for the kids, but they were saying "Mom, it's ok!" Ouch. I need to practice bravery a little better. Our driver (Neil) was a champion driver and kept us safe the whole way there and back.

| There were some Harley riders going up the Million Dollar Highway so we swapped taking each other's group pics! |

| Neil and the boys tried throwing rocks to a lake at the base of the overlook...Neil was the only one to make it! |

| We saw this bridge from the brewery and had no idea that we'd we walking across it. It connects 2 mountains! |
