Certainly many of us, including me, would much prefer to be lounging in the sun today rather than being back at work. This little guy had the right idea a couple of weeks ago near the top of Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park.

As the sun rose and temperatures similarly climbed, it felt the best course of action was to simply relax and take it all in. I can’t say I have ever seen a Marmot sit quite like this. It was pretty amusing for sure.
