The coolest thing I saw today....

Snow!

You saw that too?
Saw 7 deer playing and jumping in the fresh snow.

Waking up to a landscape dusted in snow with the sun reflecting off millions of faceted ice crystals.

(Happens everytime we get deep snow)
Watching my Puppy trying to pee, and squat just enough, so that certain areas don't touch the snow, but once starting moving legs wider as the snow melts under her... Smart Puppy!

Bluebirds are back and checking out our bird houses this morning.

I know you guys all think I live in the slums of Aurora but I was out near Arapahoe and Parker today and this pic does not do it justice (My cell camera is not that great) but the skyline was incredible. Right here (where the borders is closing) You have the best views and can see all of Denver and the skyline. This is looking north and if you look south you can see all of Denver and pikes peak. There is a coffee shop up there and you just sit and watch the whole mountain range all the way accross Denver and at night is is even cooler.

On the 4th of July, you can see all the fireworks displays not just one.

We watch you guys from a distance.

It was a long week, I enjoyed the inside of my eyelids

NICE HUGE TREES!!!!
Look close, and you'll see deer, elk, bears, & mountain lions, inbetween all the cars.

Went antler hunting out back, and found a buck antler, than found where it used to be attached, Yes the mountain got the buck, pictures to follow...

This is the coolest thing I have seen so far today but screwed up the video. My dog was going nuts because he saw a squirrel. Let him out and the squirrel went up this tree. Two woodpeckers were at the top and they were attacking the squirrel. i don't know if the squirrel thought he was playing or what.

I tried to catch it on video. LOL It did not work.

SC, Please don't take this thread down. You know my sensitivities with squirrel threads. LOL

An afternoon hike up Meridian Trail was just the thing I needed today! I made it to Arapaho Natl Forest boundary in Mt. Evans Wilderness. I can tell it has been a few days since the last human visit. Having not encountered any other hikers, I had the trail all to myself. Ahhh....yesss! Snowfall would have been the only thing that made my afternoon cooler. :thumbsup: :crossed:
