On the way to the camp in Colorado we stopped by the Capulin Volcano (in New Mexico). It was really cool to see all that lava erupting. Just kidding--it's dormant--I just wanted to be sure you were paying attention and not just looking at the pictures. ;o)
After that we went to the Great Sand Dunes National Park (in Colorado). Richard and I hadn't been in a few years...it got upgraded from a "national monument" to a "national park." We weren't able to get a room at "The Lodge" like we usually do (the only lodging close by), so we stayed at a hotel about 45 minutes away. Richard and Mama ("Mama" = my mom, "Mother" = Richard's mom) got up at the scrrrreeeech of dawn (3:45 am!!!) to go take pictures at the dunes. Evie, Mother, and I decided to sleep instead and check it out later in the day. At a glance, doesn't it look like Richard is somewhere in the Arctic instead of the sand?

Very cool!
Matt was there when he was little, but I have never been. It is about 3-4 hours away, but we really need to check it out some time!!!!!
I think that volcano photo is actually Mt. Arenal in Costa Rica. I have a similar photo from when I was there. I went to Mt. Capulin when I was about 7. I was scared it would erupt the entire time we were there.
