Picture this: a sunny day in Stuart, Florida, and I’m on a mission to find the perfect cup of coffee. My parents, Phil and Cindy Stagg, and I were shopping downtown when we decided to take a break, get some coffee, and explore some other parts of Stuart. Little did I know, our caffeine quest would lead us to the majestic Roosevelt Bridge. Yes, folks, we were just a few hundred feet away from a photo-worthy spot, but our radar was set to Gilbert’s Coffee Bar. As I sipped my latte, and walked along the pier, I had no idea that a short stroll farther would reveal one of the most stunning views in Florida. Sometimes, the best discoveries happen when you’re just trying to get your caffeine fix!

Join me on a whimsical journey to Dream Lake, a gem nestled in the heart of Rocky Mountain National Park. While I haven’t had the pleasure of visiting this enchanting place myself, the incredible photographer Phil Stagg has, and he’s shared his stunning photos and stories with us. So, grab your hiking boots (or just a comfy chair) and let’s explore Dream Lake through Phil’s eyes!
