    My DH took me out for the weekend to Estes Park. We had a lovely time and thought you all would like to see some of the pictures. We stopped at the Stanley Hotel, where scenes from Stephen King's "The Shining" were filmed. It was sunny and cool yesterday, but this morning woke up to absolute COLD this morning with snow.

    Only a portion of the hotel -- it is huge

    I had fun with the different settings on the ACDC program
