This is a marmot we saw along the train route to the summit.

1. Wow! Those are spectacular.

How many mots could a marmot mar, if a marmot could mar mots?

[GOPisEvil]

3. The views were beautiful.

A marmot could mar as many mots as a marmot could mar if a marmot could mar mots.

2. Sigh; my family used to live so close that our church group had

many, many weekend picnics there.

thanks for the memories.

4. What a cute little critter...

I love marmots. Great pics.

Ask me sometime about the marmot search here at work.

6. There was a whole group of them laying out on the rocks.

They are cute little critters. They sorta waddle like beavers.

5. Beautiful! I have friends in Denver, & I'm long overdue for a visit.

We were out there 9 years ago, and I miss those views a lot.

You jet-setter you.

10. I know. I have friends scattered all over the place.

I hadn't seen this particular friend in a few years. I probably shouldn't have gone and saved a few bucks, but I had the chance, so I had to go.

13. True, but I have to take it easy.

After Seattle, Denver and then DC in a couple of weeks, I might not be able to take a trip until next year.
