Daytripping @ Kenosha Pass

  


Today we drove up HWY 285 to do some leaf-peeping at Kenosha Pass. The Aspens were glorious, some of them covered in leaves a delicious shade of lime green, some aspens had leaves that had turned golden, others more orange in colour. We walked through a grove of aspen, their tall spires rising up on either side of us; I felt like I was in a cathedral as their trunks rose up and formed an arch over our heads. We passed other leaf-peepers with smiles pasted on their faces. There is nothing like a walk in the aspens in the autumn!

Summer Hike in Poudre River Area

The photograph (top) shows my husband and daughter on a meadow hike in the Poudre River area. (they are both way ahead of me, of course, while I try to shoot every thing that I see with my camera). The lower image is a 9" x 12" acyrlic painting on standard width canvas that I completed last week. It is ready to be framed.
