We went on a vacation for four days to the Rocky Mountains. It had been raining and cold for the first three days. We thought that our vacation would be a complete washout. To our surprise and utter relieve the last day was a bright and sunny. We took full advantage of the weather and drove around the park frantically visiting lakes, hiking trails and picturesque scenary. Close to afternoon in a winding path of a road there was traffic jam. We were curious and we joined the array of cars to see what was going on. Luckily we got a spot to park very close to a stream. We got down and followed the sea of people. There were state troopers and forest rangers directing the crowd. Suddenly we came across a huge herd of deer beautifully gracing and drinking water from the stream. It was an amazing sight with green pasture and snow covered mountains as a back drop. I have no words to explain the emotions that this sight evoked in us. We went crazy and started taking photos near and far. Out of the many photos that were taken, this photo stood out particularly because I realized how close I was to the deer. I was impressed by the way the forest rangers were calmly directing the crowd making sure people did not disturb the gracing deer. We were instructed to keep a certain distance from them. This was one of the memorable experiences of our vacation.
