    How gorgeous to see your words spreading a ray of hope to us all for the coming spring. Your photo is really breathtaking. A welcome sight during the dark days of winter. ❤

        Our weather is so strange now. We have had minimal snow here in Colorado Springs. At 6,000 Ft.+ in elevation you would think we would have more. This year, we have had terrible chinook winds (west winds that come off the slopes of the mountains). The other day we had gusts as high as 90 mph! It was like being in a hurricane, although our area is dry and arid, rather desert like.

            We lived in Montana for 17 years where the weather was similar. Then, we moved to Arizona for two years. It was after that we moved to northwest Florida for two years. LOL… military people love to move around. We love the Western states and are here to stay. Actually, neither of us liked Florida. Too hot, to humid, and too many bugs! LOL! Colorado is much more enjoyable. I hope to get around more this spring and summer to get more photos. It is a lovely state. ❤
