MoTheDigitalDiva Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 The driver and I are going to Este's Park tomorrow (September 27, 2008) to shoot some more video - hopefully the leaves are turning. If you're not doing anything let us know and we'll meet up somewhere. We'll be coming up Sheridan from I-285 then through Boulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 I don't think the leaves are in full color yet, probably another week or two. But the elk are bugling their little heads off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoTheDigitalDiva Posted September 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 The leaves turning is a major part of the vid so we'll go next week instead (Oct 4). Offer still stands if anyone is free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect! Tony (twobjshelbys) will be going as well. My driver is on call for that day in Breckenridge for a vid shoot and we prob won't know until Friday if he'll be back home that night. That and bad weather are the only two reasons to keep us away. I suppose we could take a non-shelby vehicle but that's so much less fun. I'll PM you my phone number so we can hook up.

twobjshelbys Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Another Oskar Blues regular drove back on the Peak-to-Peak tonight. He said the leaves are awesome! They ought to be great this weekend if we don’t get any wind or rain (which is not in the current forecast). Hi suggestion is that we go up through Boulder to Nederland and take the P-P to Estes. Meeting in Boulder about 10:00 would be just about right. That would get us in town for lunch and then do the park photoshoot and go back via Big Thompson. Several suggestions for lunch included the Stanley, and the place that is on the lake that has the patio that overlooks the lake (I can't remember what it is since I've never been there.) There are a couple of good Mexican places up there too. We could meet somewhere in Boulder – I’ll noodle on where and send something later.

Tony if you would please just mail the CD to me so I can get it to my son.thanks Mick I saw your note at about 9:30 this morning. Sorry we missed you. rpretzel PM'd and called and we met in Boulder about 10:30. The drive up the Peak to Peak was awesome. The best portion was from Nederland to Allenspark. There aren't that many aspens between Allenspark and Estes. We got to Estes about 12:30 and had lunch at the Grumpy Gringo since traffic through downtown was backed up all the way to the 36/34/7 intersection (We ducked around the back side on Mall Road to the restaurant). On the way to the park there was a small herd of elk in this guy's back yard. People were out of their cars. It looked like one guy was getting close to the bull and he was getting defensive about his territory - waving his antlers and pawing at the ground. FILM KEPT GOING. How stupid. These are not pets. By the time we got to the park entrance it was backed up about 1/2 hour (everyone using a credit card to pay I suppose). Rick is having the clutch problem, it was raining by then, and the line on the inside of the park looked as long as the outside, so we gave up for the afternoon. We drove back through Big Thompson Canyon and got back in time to go to my daughter's birthday dinner. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. I'll also drop the CD in the mail this week!
