let's take a walk

all work and no play

makes cat a dull girl...

so I thought it would

be fun to take you

with me on

my morning walk...

we will start here at La Dolce Vita...

if your last name means lily then you should have lilies right?

and the HOA plants giant pumpkins

every year in this site on the trail close to my house

we had snow last year,

remember and that is why

you did not see photos...

our native grasses are outstanding this year

due to the rains we had...

up the trail...

although it is early in the day,

we won't go up the mountain,

there is lots to do in the studio...

but it is nice to be out in the cool

morning air listening to the bees, the frogs and the bird song...

the color is so gorgeous right now!

don't you love the way this fence curves?

and don't worry we won't go this way...

we're going up the hill,

this tiny photo is Horsetooth Dam...

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
John Muir

What I know of the divine sciences and Holy Scriptures, I learned in woods and fields. I have no other masters than the beeches and the oaks.
Saint Bernard of Clairvaux

I call this stand of trees, the "three sisters" ...

sad to see that one has died last winter

it was a harsh year for trees...

my favorite, the twisted sister is

long dead, but still so beautiful...

Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.
Rabindranath Tagore

down the hill...

glad we got an early start

it is a popular hike...

at the trail head..

back home..

back to work

grazie,

cfn!
