Warm and mostly sunny. This is a beautiful time of year in Colorado.
I went to the whole sale glass store in Denver and stocked up. I have never bought that much glass before at one time. 15 sheets of glass and 10 pieces of dichroic glass and lots of jewelry findings. What fun! June 6th, 2006 is when we met-666 so we celebrated our 10th anniversary with dinner at Austins. I even wore my wedding dress, it still fits!
I did a test firing to see what colors the dichro is after firing. Here is before, in the kiln, at 1500 degrees and red hot and done. I made this handy dandy chart so I will remember.
Big storm clouds off the bike path and a pond with water lilies off the same path.
Geese and goslings and a robins egg shell, signs of summer. I have been very busy making jewels to restock my supplies for the winter.
Sunset in Denver tonight over Berkeley lake in my old neighborhood. Thursday evening I drove to Denver, stopped at D and L and only bought a small amount of glass. . . And had dinner with Katy. Friday AM I drove with Toni up to Silverthorn and met Rosie for a hike on Angler Mountain.
The flowers were fabulous. Fields of yellow arrow leaf balsam root.
More arrow leaf balsam root. Rosie and Toni in front of Buffalo and Red Mountains.
Great views of Dillon Lake, the Tenmile range, Silverthorn, Dillon, and the Gore Range.
After the fields of flowers we walked in spring green aspens.
Another view of Silverthorn, Frisco and Lake Dillon, looking south toward Breckenridge. Lots of flowers, oregon grape, clematis and gila.
Sunset in Fort Collins from our deck eating dinner John prepared when I got home. More flowers arrow leaf balsam roots, evening primrose, rocky mountain iris and buckwheat.
Larkspur, calpso orchids, pasque flower and prairie smoke.
