A cottage in the mountains and night full of snow

Sometimes in life when we expect the least, unexpected happens. Like right when I didnt expect a night to go so well, all of a sudden it happened. It came like a flow of events just happening to make me happy and take me along itself and give me a good time. Something like this was this Friday. A friend was coming from Texas and I didnt know anything about their plans, but I was supposed to join him with few others on their trip to Colorado and I noded alright since I wasnt doing anything anyway.

Here goes this beautiful day -

I started in my red neon, joined them at estes park, turned out that they had booked a mountain side cottage, which was nice just a mile from rocky mountain national park. We had a hike in rocky mountains during the day and in the evening we dinner at some indian/thai restaurant. Just when we thought that the day was over, it started to snow all over the place. (colorado is famous for its mountainside flacky weather, it changes within minutes). We returned to the mountain cottage at around 7pm after the dinner, it was already dark (in colorado, in winters, it gets dark around 5pm) … and there it goes …

wow

we had some drinks, laughters and after the snowfall turned to just flukes, we went outside near the creek … fresh snow all over the place … dark night all over the sky … water still flowing through the river crossing some of the frozen snow … a bench … cold … drinks to keep us warm … friends … talks … laughters … it looked like we were the only ones in miles and miles … the snow was welcoming our arrival … we spent more than an hours outside of the cottage near the creek at -4 to -10 degree Celsius … because the drinks were working on keeping us warm instead or boozing us … and when we returned inside, the fireplace was extending giving us a *warm* welcome back … it was so nice … I spent my night sleeping near the fireplace … it was a different experience, something that I would like to repeat and when we woke up in the morning, another cottage at a distant to us was looking like the most beautiful place I have seen in ages … they had to leave by 7am … we had a coffee  … they left for a drive from the inside of national park, I returned back to boulder … and this return drive from estes park to boulder was one of those drives that you see in movies … a road cutting through the mountains full of snow …

wonderful experience …

something that came up at the most unexpected time …

something that I would like to repeat … :)
