January Thaw in Boulder

Neither one of us can wait for warmer weather to start digging into the dirt.

Gettin' Close to Winter in Boulder

We took a one gas tank trip up I-70 for a dip in the Glenwood Springs pool. That stretch of the I-70 is gorgeous and it was pretty clear, even over snowy Vail Pass. The pool's mineral water never fails to satisfy.
On the way back, we stopped at the Butterhorn Bakery in Frisco on the way back for some yummy soups.

The next day, we were dumped on as you can see with the Sultan of Barbeque picture.

Last Weekend

I got to the National Wildlife Federation's native plants sale on Saturday and picked up a Maximillian Daisy and was inspired by their Mahonia garden so I got one of those, too.






I'm enjoying all the white flowers in my garden this year, especially the Snow in Summer and Potentilla. The white geraniums look downright elegant. My neighbor has some opulent white irises that I see every time I leave my driveway. And the white cosmos I seeded are coming up for later oh, and the white rose is in bud...........

Winter vs Spring

Spring wins, hands down.
