WINTER'S HARBINGERDriving on I-70 West,
Near the Genessee turnoff,
Is the picture best,
Framed no less.Of our gorgeous Rocky Mountains,
And a bit further is a better view,
The scenery surmounting,
Any thing man can do.And on the crests you can see,
A dusting of snow,
What in weeks will come to we,
Starts up high and then comes low.

One of the old houses in Idaho Springs. I notice that the residents of some of the mountain towns accentuate the architectural details by a careful choice of colored paints. Some of these homes date back to gold mining days.

I love that beautiful home!
Also I have memories of driving on I 70...not really such good memories since we were stuck on the side of the road for ....HOURS. But we did enjoy the scenery while waiting for the tow truck.
Enjoyed the trip. Keep em coming!
Mye eye is always drawn to the houses that are painted with vibrant colors. I think too many folks are afraid of color.
And such BLUE skies!
I emailed you my update notice and it bounced back. Did you give that email addy up?
Awesome pictures. Makes me want to go see the mountains. I will be seeing the Tucson mountains when I go see John later this month.
If there is a historical designation the choice of colors may have to meet some committee's approval.
