My last post was in May of last year since I spend my time on some other forums. Any who I'd figured I'd post up where I ventured to 2012.

Most of these trips where in Colorado since I was relocated by my company for work.

January - Visited Cripple Creek, Hornbeck Homestead and hiked Waldo Canyon

I love the mountains which is why I live in them. I hate every day I have to head down into the city for work.
