In My Neighborhood Tuesday ~Water

This weeks assignment for In My Neighborhood Tuesday was water.

Living as close to the Rocky Mountains as I do, water often means rivers here. This is from a vacation we took to Estes Park in September of 2008. We stayed in these cute, if not somewhat rustic, cabins called Loveland Heights Cottages. All of their cabins are either hanging over the Big Thompson River or extremely close.

You can see below that from the back deck of our cabin we were about 3 yards away from the river! It was pretty cool to hear that water rushing by as you are drifting off to sleep!

What a great photo. I think that would be so neat to be able to listen to the water that close while I drift off to sleep. It looks so cozy there :)

Thanks for joining!

That picture makes me miss the river that used to be in our yard when we lived up in N.H.

We just loved Estes Park when we went there this summer -- I hope we can go there again soon! The best thing about the Rocky's...no mosquitoes! (We had a billion of those pesky critters in Illinois this summer!)
