Denver Blooms


suddenly
a realization of longing
after a secret wish is
fulfilled


the arrival of spring in Denver

I'm enjoying the city while it continues to snow in Breckenridge.
Denver is blooming!
I fly to Arizona tomorrow.
I haven't seen my friend for a year.
We'll be road-tripping, talking, eating, playing...
did I mention talking?
Friends are always my One Good Thing!

Leaving Snow Behind!

Ben (11) off Peak 6, Breckenridge

Snow continues to dominate the mountain landscape.
Another 15" (38 cm) fell overnight.

However, spring is showing itself 90 miles away in Denver.
I'm veering toward that warmth!

In about a week, I'm bound for Arizona.
I hear the Saguaros are in bloom.
I'll be visiting my friend, Mary.


I asked Fox to keep watch until I return.
