Aspen/Snowmass Jazz Festival

Wow! So this last weekend rocked! Chris, Leah, Lopey and I had ourselves a weekend full of live music up in the mountains and it was awesome! We rented a condo in Snowmass for the weekend and bought two day passes to the Jazz Festival that included The Allman Brothers and Gov't Mule. The weather and scenery was absolutely beautiful, we couldn't have asked for anything better. The condo was right on the edge of a run so we were able to watch hikers and bikers on their way down the mountain. The view has got to be incredible during the ski season as well. When we weren't at the show we made our own music in the condo since the boys brought their guitars. On our way home we stopped at Maroon Bells to stretch our legs and to take some pictures. The Maroon Lake was so clear that you could see everything laying under the surface, it made me thirsty actually. We took lots of pictures and I will post them soon.
