Summer in the Rocky Mountains!

<< < (21/23) > >>

The first wildflower hike of the season was yesterday. It's been quite rainy, so lots of flowers were blooming. In addition, we saw a family of wild turkey vultures.

Today, I'm relaxing at home. Here's a photo of the garden, complete with kitty:

Stay tuned for new scenes of summer in the Rocky Mountains...including Wyoming pics, too!!

On "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" this was predicted to be the next major crisis...an outbreak of Beaver Fever!

Front-Ranger:
 You may have heard about a wildfire in Golden. It's not threatening my house...there are two mountains between it and me. It's burning about 1500 acres, but it's actually a good thing because there is a lot of dead wood in that area due to the mountain pine beetle, and it needs to burn. Better now than later in the summer, when it will be even harder to control. The smoke has been rather bad though and I've been sneezing a lot.

I saw something about the fire on national TV news, but then almost immediately it dropped off NBC's radar screen.
