A Gorgeous State Park Adventure

Last week end we enjoyed a fun day with friends at a gorgeous State Park.
We had breakfast at the lake side restaurant. Went for a short hike.
I loved the contrast of this big budding tree against the dark blue sky and green pines.
We hiked past this cute little cabin.
This is the 100 year old cabin that belonged to a poet who loved living in this beautiful setting. He lived there until he died and gave tours and talks. It's still such a pretty home with all the furnishings still in place. There is tours of the home from May 30th until Sept. 1st.
Here we are with our friends. We just had to sit on this patio to enjoy the fresh pine forest sent and feel the breeze. I think we could all imagine living here.

We did a little fishing!
We didn't catch anything, but that was OK, maybe next time!
It was very relaxing with a very scenic back drop.

I love the tall rock formations around this lake.

We saw a lot of wild life. These are 3 lazy buck Antelope.

These are Dall sheep that roam the park.
Two big bull Bison!
This heard of Buffalo looks very content but don't get too close, they can really surprise you. I have always enjoyed this State Park. We also saw squirrel, deer and ducks etc.
