Fishing, Kind of

So our first fishing trip of the season turned out to be, kind of, a bust. Although, we got to enjoy some beautiful scenery on a beautiful day.
We have Spring fever and have wanted to get into the mountains since, well,we were last up there in the fall. This past Monday was a gorgeous day so we packed up, stopped for a fishing license and headed out towards Rampart Reservoir. Well, who knew that the access road doesn't open till May 1 (yes I failed to do that part of my research). As we were driving away we noticed another parking area that had quite a few cars and a trail. So we decided that we would see where that lead and after 15 minutes, or too difficult of a hike, we would turn around. We met a lady right at the beginning that told us it was a very easy hike in. After about 20 minutes we met a gentleman that told us it was at least another 3/4 a mile. So we decided to turn around, Ethan was devastated, he really wanted to fish. So we stopped at the creek, lured up his rod and threw a few casts out.

Now we can't wait till next time!!
