Our Honeymoon

We honeymooned in Colorado. Our first stop was Colorado Springs where we visited my grandparent's old "homestead" when my grandpa was in the army.

Our second stop was Cripple Creek, which is in the mountains with an elevation of around 10,000 ft. It was a neat little mining town. A lot of casinos and old buildings. While we were there we stayed in the old school house that was converted into a bed and breakfast. It was beautiful what they had done to the place. Unfortunately, I got elevation sickness the second night we were there and had to be rushed to the hospital back in Colorado Springs. Thankfully, it wasn't anything serious, just a little dehydration.

Our last stop was in Crested Butte. It too is in the mountains with an elevation of around 11,000 ft I believe. This time I made sure to drink lots of water and stay hydrated so I would stay out of the hospital!! Crested Butte was also a neat little town. It was very compact and had a very unique feel to the "downtown" area. While there, Kyle and I decided to get a trout stamp and go trout fishing in the rivers nearby. There were so many rivers and streams that we had no problem finding a good "fishing hole."
