So....Kelsey, Brian and I went camping at Turquoise Lake just outside of Leadville. Beautiful weather when we got there, with just a hint of storm clouds in the distance. TaDah...a couple of hours after setting up camp, and right in the middle of din-din, the skies opened up like someone turned on a faucet above our heads! We had a couple of Kelty covers with us so we were dry, but the tent was in trouble. The site was right at the base of a freaking mountain and the water was just rolling toward the tent like a magnet. I suggested we trench around the site and was met with words of encouragement, but no offers of assistance. Haha Kelsey was my prime spectator and Brian was my wantabe supervisor. So much fun!! Actually, I had a blast. I am such a tomboy--playing in the rain and the mud was right up my alley. The most fun I've had camping in a long time. I must have done a good job because we did stay dry that night.
The next day was beautiful and we got some lovely photos of the lake.
