You folks from Tennessee are always bragg'in on how beautiful it is out there, but I can't say that I am convinced.  I know, I have seen photos and some are sure purdy!  :) Someday I will get over there to check out those hills myself!

But today, we took a trip up into the Rocky Mountains, and it was bea-u-ti-ful!  The leaves were a'turnin, and the varmints were out in force.  Just in  time for bow-hunting season!  (we saw a few of 'em out there, we think)  Anyway, we don't bow-hunt (yet) but we might have to because by the time rifle season gets here it is SO cold.  And all the leaves have fallen, and it is pretty near brown all over.....but still, there is no place like Colorado, no matter what the season it is.  Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring, silly! I wasn't talking about hunting seasons.....heh heh.

Take a look at this:

I did not mess with the color at all on this one!! 

 Pure, natural Colorado Color.

And as we came around a bend, I saw these antlers back in the trees.  There were actually three of them, but one was just out of the photo on the left.  Three bucks just hanging out together.....really weird.  A little male bonding going on out in the woods?  Hmm....sounds like the hunters and the hunted are pretty predictable.....shhhh!  Don't tell you-know-who that I said such a thing!                                                                                                 

What a glorious day! 

Have a blessed Sunday,
