We started Day 2 with a 4:00 am hair and makeup call for Margaret and Heather for a beautiful sunrise shot at Lake Dillon. We were fortunate enough to have our friend Rick donate his sailboat for the morning. First up was Heather on the bow of the sailboat “Mischief” with the Colorado sunrise reflecting off the water. It made for an absolutely gorgeous shot to start off our second day. Next up was Margaret, who posed gracefully in front of the main sail. Her blue and white striped suit certainly fit the nautical theme of the morning shot. Although the weather was chilly, both girls toughed it out and ended up with the perfect Rocky Mountain lake snapshot.
The second photo session of the day was Kristin back in the lobby of our “home base” hotel – the Ritz Carlton. The fireplace was roaring (good thing because it was raining outside!) It was a shot that definitely depicts the entire feel of the Ritz Carlton Bachelor Gulch.
The third shot of the day was Allyson and Bachelor, a 16 week old St. Bernard puppy. Bachelor, named after Bachelor Gulch, is the 7th “Bachelor” for the Ritz Carlton. The shot took place along side of Ritz Carlton-Bachelor Gulch. Although the puppy was excited (and distracted!), the pictures of Allyson turned out great. It was a fun and playful shot. Not everyone is lucky enough to shoot with a dog let alone a puppy that is as sweet as Bachelor.
Last shot of the day was Toni! Our design team got her all ready to go in her Blue and Orange Broncos bathing suit. She looked absolutely stunning. We brought her up to the top of the mountain for a gorgeous sunset shot and it began to downpour! Although the landscape with the mountains and wildflowers looked gorgeous in the rain, Toni’s hair and makeup wouldn’t hold up so we moved her sunset shot to the next day.
Seven cheerleaders are done shooting and we have another 19 shots to go! All the ladies are looking beautiful and I can’t wait to tell you about all the exciting shots to come!
Also RB/FB John Clay from Wisconson. He`s one big dude.

Royal, I wouldn`t mind snagging Clay up as a undrafted FA. Give him a shot.
Halftime, real good game, USA up 1-0.
Thanks guys, it wouldn’t be anywhere as much fun if it wasn’t to share my love of the Broncos with all you guys.
About Siliga, one has to feel bad for him since he left school early only to go undrafted…
I feel the same way. I enjoy discussing my Denver Broncos with other Bronco fans. Rarely a dull moment.
Yeah bay – he probably could’ve used one more year of development in college.
strand- Clay is ready for the NFL and will land up making a Team. imo.
I live in Utah and I am a big Utah Utes fan. Siliga is a good solid player. He can stop the run and disrupt the pass. If the Broncos were to pick him up I think he could bring some much needed talent to the D-line.
I think your right and I hope it`s the Bronco`s. I also would like to sign the FB from the Rams, forgot his name, Bay mentioned him earlier today.
Thx – xRay – good to have some input from our neighboring state, and one who is more familiar with Sealver Siliga…. (former teammate of Zane Beadles).
Mike Karney #44 FB from the St. Lious Rams, FA. He`s 5’11″ 260lbs 30yrs old.
260 lbs – Karney is a bruiser.
There will be quite a few CFA out there who will bust there butts just to make a Team or at the very least – practice squad.
Players like Siliga and others have a shot but will have to work twice as hard to beat out incumbents and other young players.
There are some hidden gems though.. let’s hope we get a few.
Wasn’t Cassius Vaughn a CFA last year?
USA!!! 3-1, finals Sunday.
Correct Cassius was undrafted.
Thanks bay.
Congrats to the US Womens’s Soccer Team!
But actually this has got to be the worse year to come into the NFL whether you are drafted or undrafted. Due to the lack of preparation for them to get NFL ready I truly believe that the majority of them will be very hard pressed to make any kind of sizable contibution to any team, it’s just unfortunate that most of this year’s rookies will in essence be penalized a year with this locked out off season. Let’s hope Von Miller will be one of those few exception is all I can hang my hopes onto rookies wise at this point.
Point is for this season we will have to strictly rely on our current vets plus the few UFAs we will acquire and Von Miller, any other rookie or undrafted rookie will be mainly a project for next year. Franklin will be thrown into the fire because without Harris we will have no choice, and Tebow must be just a little nervous about that. Irving will see some time at ILB because of necessity, Rahim Moore and Carter should also see some time because we are so thin at safety, and the two new TEs also since we are even thinner there, but solid contributions from any of these is not exactly where I’m basing my expectations, please surprise me!
It’s going to be interesting to see who makes the squad with our current Safeties on the roster. (I may have missed one). Originally thought Reynaldo Hill would make the Team, but that was before we drafted Moore and Carter.
Who’s gone and who stays… what do you guys think?
1) Darcel McBath
Nick Polk
2) David Bruton
3) Quinton Carter
4) Rahim Moore
5) Brian Dawkins
6) Reynaldo Hill
7) Kyle McCarthy
Yea Bay, most of the time whenever we get done with a draft most of the time we will only have around 2-3 guys who start, on average. This year there will be SEVERAL guys who will be starting! Miller, Irving, Thomas/Green, or both of them, Moore/Carter, and Franklin! These guys are going to be getting some great experience very quickly! It’s going to be very exciting because we’re going to get to see what some of these guys have very early and are going to be able to watch as they get better. Let’s all just hope the lockout ends by July 21st so that they can all get in and start getting things done and preparing for preseason!!
With all of these guys starting, there is ANOTHER big name, the biggest of them all who should be starting…Mr. TEBOW!!
I LOVE ME SOME BRONCOS COUNTRY!!!
Irving is a coin flip with starting but the trio have already said that most likely he will start. By seeing how big Mays has gotten though over the offseason, it might not be such a sure thing. Whoever we have at MLB, we know that they are going to be REALLY good. We have some great competition there now….FINALLY!
Acquire two defensie tackles: The defensive tackle population on the Denver roster is poor. It’s time for the Broncos to hit free agency for at least one solid veteran, but two would be even better. In a perfect world, they would acquire the Giants’ Barry Cofield and Seahawks’ Brandon Mebane. Cofield is a 27-year-old defensive tackle with good size at 6-foot-4 and 310 pounds. Cofield typically delivers 40 tackles and three to four sacks a season. Mebane is a 26-year-old guy that is 6-foot-1 and closer to 315 pounds. Mebane will not have the same numbers as Cofield, but will be disruptive inside and could play more as a “1 technique.” Maybe Fox would like to put the Vikings’ Pat Williams on the nose for a year, but that would fly in the face of a youth movement.
Think about getting both Cofield and Mebane. That would completely fix our defense and our front 7 would be straight up NASTY!!! We would DEFINITELY be starting up the Orange Crush again with that front 7!!!
I have to agree with freak,I think Moore and Carter should both start,after all they were the best 2 Safeties in the draft period!
