Bishop Castle
I just couldn't make myself head straight home this morning. I needed one last adventure. I have heard for years about Bishop Castle but had never seen it in person. This castle is in Rye, CO in the San Isabel Nat'l Forest. The castle was built mostly by one eccentric anti-government guy over the last …
Last Night
So I came back to my campsite last night to find the belongings I left there GONE! It was dark, but I wandered to the neighboring site to ask if they had seen anyone take my stuff. They pointed out a site right behind mine that had an "unsavory" group of people who had set …

My so called friends…
....sent me on an adventure today. It's called the Alpine Loop. They made it sound so lovely. "It's a bit rocky" they said. OhmyGodOhmyGodOhmyGodOhmyGod! At first it was indeed lovely. Then I thought "oh, I think I need to put it in 4WD. This will be fun!" Um, it was crazy. Most people were in …
