    I fully agree that people in Colorado are so sweet! I’ve been a couple of times and every time I feel like it changes my perspective. I think the way of life is more simple, and more practical. Loved getting to explore Colorado with you in this video. Now I need to go again!

    I live in CO and have been to these places so many times but it reminded me how grateful I am to live here. I decided to move after visiting Rocky Mountain. Such a special space.

    I’m from Colorado and I agree with you, we’re such welcoming people and I think it is because we have such a beautiful state and see the sun almost everyday! But it is known that Coloradoans are nice people, so maybe it’s in the water? Lol so glad you enjoyed our state! 💕

    I lived in Colorado for about a year and also lived in Wyoming throughout my high school years. On my first day of school, I had other kids coming up to me introducing themselves and talking to me. It was amazing!! I have lived in many states growing up, but still have not been to a state where the people are so friendly like Wyoming and Colorado. I really miss that, and it is such a night and day change from where I live now in California. Even in our neighborhood of all homeowners, it is like pulling teeth out just to get a neighbor to look your way so you can smile at them and wave.

    I live in Colorado and I hike in Rocky Mountain National Park often in the summer. Estes Park is one of my favorite places! As a warning- if you come back during the summer, it gets really crowded and reservations are required to hike in the park. But it is totally worth it and the hikes in the summer are stunning- especially during wildflower season! 😊
    Also, Kind Coffee is amazing. I go there every time I’m in town. Best coffee shop in Estes for sure!! Loved this vlog! Thanks for sharing your trip with us!! ❤️

  • @leightonvary1181
    @leightonvary1181 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Stumbled on this video tonight, and Estes Park is my wife and my favorite place! We got married at the YMCA there and spend so much time at RMNP. If you come out again, try Nepal's Cafe, Antonio's Pizza or Cafe de Pho-Thai. So good! And I'm pretty sure that we're so chill here because Colorado is just an amazing place to live! Beautiful, sunny, fun... So worth living here. Glad you enjoyed it!

    not sure still could have been a groundhog, didn't seem like it had a beaver tail. Maybe it did and I just couldn't tell on the video.

    I was so excited for this video and it did not disappoint! So beautifully done! I live an hour from Estes and I always feel very grateful for time spent in the mountains. Kind coffee is my favorite coffee shop anywhere! Finding good restaurants is another story. Ed’s Cantina is truly awful. Colorado has really delicious Mexican food, just not in Estes 😉. Anyway, just wanted to say I love all your videos, especially this one. ❤️

  • @locololo14

    So I worked at Rocky Mountain National Park this winter on the Environmental Education team. You might be surprised. In my opinion, Bear, Dream, and Emerald are even more beautiful in winter. Get your snowshoes on and go back and check them out. Fully frozen over, they are so pretty also there are not many people there in like January or February. You also need to go back at some point once they open trail ridge road for the summer. It is incredible. By the way if you go back in the winter, Rock cut brewery has great beer and a trivia night on Tuesday nights except for the summer months(too many people). I'm hoping yall got to see Upper Beaver Meadows while there. The wild flowers are in bloom at that elevation and they are gorgeous.

    Ooohhhhh! You AB•SO•LUTE•LY Should have gone in the Stanley Hotel it's SO gorgeous..Grand..elegant. It will blow you away. A MUST see for a next trip. I always say, anyone who goes to Estes Park and The Rocky Mountain National Park, Always go back. Besides, you HAVE to drive Trail Ridge Road(most important), plus walk thru all of The Visitors Center at the top(approx 11,770 ft elevation I think)...or you Haven't experienced RMNP. 😉 You'll thank me later. Nice video ladies! God bless
