Dad's Weekend '06

Well, Geoff beat me to it. Check out the Pierz Blog for the first of our two posts about the 2nd Annual Dad's Weekend. Last year we inaugurated our Dad's Weekend tradition with a trip to Vedauwoo, WY. Vedauwoo is this great little nature area full of great rock formations and lots of aspen trees. The aspen trees are kind of key to the Dad's Weekend concept. Basically, the idea is to schedule it in the fall and camp someplace where the aspen leaves are turning. It gives us a chance to hang out, try some new beers, and grab some great fall photos. This year we camped back in the Poudre Valley, northwest of Fort Collins. As Geoff mentioned in his post, we were a little apprehensive about the weather, but everything turned out great. I think I will defer to Geoff's post in most respects and will just leave you all with a few more photos to round out the ones Geoff put up. He briefly mentioned the wood chopping that we spent part of Saturday doing, and I've got the photos to show why it took part of the day. By the way, Frank, we probably owe you a new hatchet.
