Wings

Soaring above Aspen Mountain...

Somewhere over Kansas

There was a beautiful sunset driving through Kansas on our way home but the only shot of it I could get was through Mike's sideview mirror as he was driving...

Gentle Giants

Last evening at the music tent, there was the usual gathering of dogs, with the exception of these two behind us.   We had never heard of this breed before, "leonburger", and I was distracted by these two beauties for most of the evening.  The adult male was 180 pounds, and the 12 week old puppy was already 40 pounds and had doubled its weight in just two weeks...gentle giants...

I dare you

Go ahead, just try and tell me he's not smiling...

A typical drive at dusk

Mule deer buck on one side of the road...

A small herd of elk on the other side of the road..

A boy and his dog

This was captured last week, our first Sunday at the music tent.   I couldn't resist this "back shot" of a boy and his dog.  The dog, an Australian Shepherd was just beautiful, and so well behaved.  So sweet...

It's exhausting being in charge...

Cody is ready to be "off duty"....tomorrow.

The Men of the House

With Mike back in Dayton for a few days, Cody and Dillon have stepped up as "the men of the house".
They take their responsibility quite seriously, as you can see them at their respective posts, on alert for any creature, large or small.

Telluride

If you ever have the chance to visit Telluride, Colorado-do so.  It's a wonderful mountain town with spectacular scenery... (9/08)

Missing you...

I miss my kids...

Happy 4th of July!

Mother Nature

I snapped these last night not knowing exactly what I was looking at,  but I did know that it looked amazing.  I knew it wasn't a tornado, and a storm was approaching.  Now I know it's "virga" ("observable streaks or shafts of precipitation that fall from a cloud but evaporate before reaching the ground").
