One of my favorite places in the world during the summer (or any time of year) is Colorado. This past week, I spent time hiking, biking, and enjoying the weather outside in Beaver Creek Colorado.
Some of my favorite experiences included hiking and finding a Texas flag, high in the mountains, sighting people living in vans by the lake, and taking electric bikes for the first time.
The first day we rode bike (without electricity), we went 6 miles. The bike was great, but definitely left us exhausted because of all of the hills. The next time we biked, we went the same route but ended up going 35 miles. The electric-assist helped get us up hills with ease, and enabled us to go much further.
The best part of the vacation is always relaxing, which I found plenty of time to make art and practice drawing Mandalas.
