This skeleton of a tree has been standing in this spot forever it seems...
when I first came to Colorado, I visited this place frequently, and took images
of this tree over and over again...I am thankful it is still standing just as I remember
from my first attempts to quickly escape the madness of the 'front range'.

The biggest thrill for me is the signs of the season, even on this big red,
beautiful rock...
Spring brings sage and other greenery with little spots
of snow on the foothills in the background...
This is one of the things that make
Colorado such an incredible place!!
Shhh. Don't tell.
