We finished off our trip by going to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park, where (in my humble opinion) can be found some of the most beautiful scenery in the United States. Trail Ridge Road is a beautiful drive that takes you up to over 11,000 feet and offers simply spectacular views in every direction. It’s a fantastic ride! Estes Park is the home to the Stanley Hotel, which was built in 1906 by F.O. Stanley (the inventor of the Stanley Steamer) and is also where The Shinning with Jack Nicholson was filmed. The hotel is still open for business today and is beautiful. As seen in the last picture, I think by this time of the week George was ready to just sit and take a rest. It had been a very busy week for us all.
