This is rather a unique rock formation. I wonder what it means.

The Trail Welcomes all Who Dare to Follow
There are many hiking paths in Roxborough State Park. What I learned today, this one pictured is also accessible to those who prefer to ride rather than walk. Park Rangers have a nifty electric cart to transport folks to the cabin at the other end of the trail.
It is a beautiful location and certainly worth the trip.
The Fire of Sunrise
First light brings with it a warmth from the sun that brightens any mood. Watching the shadows recede at Roxborough demonstrates the power of the sun it gives life and so much more.
How About Red?
If we were to have a scavenger hunt for every color house in the rainbow, we must do it at Stapleton. Trouble is we would have too many winners.
That’s OK. It would be fun. I so love doing drive by shootings in this neighborhood, particularly this time of year.
I Need A Rocking Chair!
When I see a home like this, I want a rocking chair. And a book. And some lemonade.
I don’t care if it’s not my yard. It was meant to be enjoyed, don’t you agree?
A setting like this was meant for public domain.
Share it please…
Color is Good
For so many years we painted our homes in tones of the earth, blending in instead of shouting out. I love the color that shouts, “remember me!”
Who can forget that yellow house?
The Stapleton neighborhood has gone to great lengths to design a community with the fine details of the past and the required amenities of the future. Notice the xeriscaped yards, they aren’t large enough (on purpose) to have to water, instead homeowners plant flowers and shrubs, all low maintenance, low water.
It works, the area is beautiful!
The Flag
I love when homeowners fly the flag. Every time I see a home with a flag waving in front of it I want to stop and shoot it.
Flying the flag says so much, I love my home, I love my country, I am proud. Look at me!
Yes, I think I’ll hang my flag out tomorrow.
Just because.
Stapleton Brownstones
I am listing a home for sale this week in Stapleton, so I’ve moved my drive-by shooting activities to the east side of town. 🙂
The new Stapleton neighborhood is built upon the old Stapleton Airport site. It is a green community that is actually used as an example for other communities around the country. Guess you could call Stapleton a Mentor Community!
This time of year is very colorful at Stapleton. The gardens are a profusion of color, it’s definitely a target rich environment for photos. Of course living there must be very nice too!
Denver from the North
There’s a seedy side of Denver I want to shoot. I can see it from The Mouse Trap, but my hubby refuses to stop the car. Ok, so it’s the busiest intersection of highways for probably 600 miles in any direction. What’s the problem?
Anyway, I went looking for a close by perch. My shot is that looking down the railyard toward Denver. Yes, I know, but remember I said SEEDY?
It’s a cool shot. I didn’t get it yet. Instead I took this, I’m getting closer, stay tuned.
