July 25-28, 2018 Fort Collins, Colorado


I saw this storm cloud on my way home from biking. It started to rain just as  was almost home. . .


I had lunch today with some friends that I used to work with at Humana many moons ago. Great to catch up and look at old photos. At the table, Sue, Nancy, Curl and Kay. On the steps Nancy, Curl, Kay and Suep.

I love the light at dusk. The bike path and the path around McMurry Ponds.

This wicked looking cloud was vibrating with thunder. Glad is was going north east.  Reflection on North Shields lakes.

Cool looking sunset clouds from two different places. Bike path and McMurry Ponds.

Off the beaten trail on the way back. Tree roots and the Poudre river.

Don't ask my why, but this cloud looks like a flying pig to me. After my bike ride we walked over to Old Town Square for the free Thursday night concert. 

Jimjim stopped by on his way out of town. He is moving all his tools etc from the rental house here in Fort Collins to Alma to start work on his house up there.  I have been making belt buckles. One of them exploded into 5 pieces in the kiln. The top right picture are the pieces ready for re-firing into pendants. They are in the center sprayed. The far right piece was two pieces I am fusing together. Bottom left are the finished pieces.  I ran out of price tags so I made some. 

Sunset last night. The finished belt buckles. 

John took me out to dinner on the eve of my birthday tonight. We ate at the outdoor seating and it rained a bit. John bought me the rose from a vendor on the street. Then we went to the Midsummer Night Fire Circus to watch fire dancers at the Fort Collins Discovery Museum. This whole weekend is the Fringe Festival with performers in 5 venues all day all weekend. Very fun evening. Thanks darling. 

The fire dancers started out while there was still fire in the sky. Acrobats on a huge hanging swing, fire hula hoops, more fire dancers and at the end there were lighted hula hoops, fire dancing and acrobats in the background. Birthday flowers from John. It was a great show.
