Splenfloriferous

A trip to the SW part of Colorado over several mountain passes led to some splendid scenes of color. The aspen in the high country were beginning to turn...not quite at peak but still a beautiful show with the mountains framing the background.
For those who think that Colorado is dull and brown take another look at the range of colors...yellows, golds, blues, ambers. Mother Nature's palette is full of colors.
I do hate to see the leaves changing as that means that winter will soon be following. Summer definitely was not long enough and I am not ready to give up my shorts and tops for wool socks, hats and mittens. Oh if only fall would linger for a time longer! Mom

  1. I hear you, I had hoped to sleep on my roof this weekend, however it's a bit chilly.
