Pics from March

Thought ya'll might enjoy some photos. The first four are from a spontaneous trip to the Sand Dunes with my friend Medhi. We were going to go to the art museum but it was closed, so we felt the only logical option was to go to the Sand Dunes (a five hour drive, well worth it!) We were suprised to find Alamosa covered in snow when we arrived, but after a couple hours most of it had melted. We went to Zapata Falls first which is 5-10 miles from the actual dunes. The falls were quite frozen, but you could hear the water melting, beneath 3-4 feet of ice while standing on top of it. Then we hiked up a Sand Dune, which was amazing. For all of you who know about my fear of climbing mountains, this was very comforting. There is nothing scary about being on top of dune.
We got home the next day around eleven and I left for Mexico the next morning with the family. The last photo is us before leaving. Not much exciting happened while in Cabo, we just lied by the pool and read for seven days straight! Quite the relaxing way to spend your time....

No, this is not Mauritania. This is the Great Sand Dunes in Colorado! It snowed the night before, and a good portion of the dunes were still snowy, but it was rather warm out!
