In my opinion, one of the BEST photos I have ever seen. Not only does it capture the amazing rock mountain in the background but it is a truly captivating photo of your son having the time of his life on the swingset--with the added pop of orange and red...it's timeless. I would blow it up and hang it on my wall!!

Are you a professional photographer, or did you just get lucky?!

Crested Butte is a great place for kids. My sisters and I grew up there as did our mom (so I am a little biased) I love going back with my family to visit.

Crested Butte was a fantastic place to vacation! We stayed at Crested Butte Retreat for a wedding...awesome diggs! Great nightlife for parents (leave the little ones with the grandparents and head to LowBar for drinks if you can, yum!).

My kid enjoyed the ski school, but he's since switched over to riding...I think they had lessons for that, too. The kids dug the bear riding around on the bike, too. There's also a wonderful toy store in town full of cool wooden and educational doodads.

I heart Crested Butte...I hope to go back someday :0)
