INVITING ADVENTURE offers ways to TRAVEL CLOSER TO HOME in the U.S. this year. Paint, draw, photograph, yoga, walk in Rocky Mountain nature near Buena Vista and Salida in Chaffee County, Colorado.

Rocky Mountain nature near Buena Vista and Salida in Chaffee County, Colorado is the setting for the September 14-19, 2003 yoga, walking, hiking, painting, and photography trips. Be active, be creative, be both! Space is still available.

As more people travel closer to home, INVITING ADVENTURE offers individuals, companies and travel agents new types of trips -- those that offer both creative and active fun in nature. Travelers or corporate teams can also create custom itineraries for their escapes to Colorado Mountain nature. Painting, practicing yoga, photographing nature, hiking, walking and relaxing in natures powerful peace are wonderful options for travelers via the Colorado trips. All of the escapes set up by Inviting Adventure are created with a casually structured agenda so folks can easily adapt the schedule to their own personal interests.

We provide individual professional guidance to our creativity sessions outdoors in mountain nature. This individualized, custom approach is more popular than having an instructor lecturing at the front of a classroom," says Pamela Olson, president of Inviting Adventure. Travelers who want to have fun, learn or practice painting, drawing, or photography will do so in nature -- hands-on -- with a professional offering guidance and suggestions throughout the week with us. They will also have the chance to walk or relax in nature, as much or as little as they want to."
