Traveling Home to Silverton

During the past week I enjoyed a whirlwind trip from Silverton to Boulder to Centennial (where Maggie, Travis and Finn live) to the Vail Valley to the Rifle Gap and Falls to Grand Junction to Delta (where I purchased apples to can pie filling---come see me!) to Montrose to Silverton!
Fall colors were abundant followed by the first snow.  I had such fun taking pictures so
please enjoy!


This was the first hint of fall in Silverton---frozen dewdrops on the clothesline!

                                          Next sign of fall?  My neighbors woodpile!
                                          Rifle Falls---quite spectacular!
                                          Underneath the falls, looking out....
                                           Looking through the Rifle Gap toward the Colorado River                        
                                          Red Mt. in its colorful glory...
                                           Red Mts. #1, 2, 3
                                            A rainbow in the distance...
                                           New snow today as I came home from Ouray.

                                           It was so utterly beautiful...
                                           You can see why I love living here...

Fall is truly here.  Colored leaves, chilly mornings, new snow on the peaks...a feast
for the eyes for sure.  Signing off for now.........
