Snow!

Okay - I give!  Summer is over...but my calendar says fall!  And it's snowing in Rocktober!  Seems a little early but technically it can snow in September so I'll consider myself lucky.  Fall and spring are incredibly short seasons in Colorado - winter starts about now and typically lasts until April.  Spring is quick - everything greens up quickly before the heat of summer turns on and the Front Range turns brown again.  Fall is a blast of color both in the mountains and in Denver.  And then old man winter throws the switch and it's winter again.  Not that I'm complaining, I guess I'm not quite ready for it yet.  I want to get in a few more mountains and I will over the next few months - they'll just be snowier.  Climb On!

I don't care if they're mountain shots, but I want photos!! I <3 the snow, and being in Oregon, at just over 200` above sea level, I don't see much snow at my house (except the crazy 14" - 16" we had that basically shut down the whole metro area for a week last Christmastime!). I gotta live vicariously, cousin!! :)
