September 17-20, 2022 Fort Collins

 High of 80 and sunny today. It was lovely.



I went to our annual luncheon with my friends I worked with  in the 80's. Me, Nancy, Kay and Carol. We met at Carols house and she prepared BLT's with fresh tomatoes she picked off her tomato plant in her beautiful garden. It was yummy and great to see them. 



Carol is a famous artist. Her the walls in her lovely home are covered with her work. The bottom shot is her studio with more stunning paintings. 



Sunset as we ate dinner on the deck. 



It was so pretty out I went out biking. This is the diversion dam on the Poudre River. The late day sun came through the window and lighted up my masterpieces. 



Sunset tonight. I decided to try riding my bike over the roots along the trail. I could see tracks where everyone else does. Of course I crashed. I landed on my face, on my right eye. My sunglasses and helmet saved me from bad injuries, but I will have a big black eye tomorrow I think. 



I went up to Summit County and did a fun hike with my friend Rosie at Old Dillion Reservoir. The aspens were turning and it was a lovely day. Great to see Rosie.



View of Red Mountain with aspens. The first tomato on my early girl this year. I planted late, June 29. Flowers from our hike, asters, sunflower, white sunflowers, blue flax, yarrow and bee balm.  



Red aspens. Lupine, bee balm, sky rockets and kissing aspen trees. 



Golden aspens. Rosie and I on our hike.
