Winter Walk

Mark is off this week and we are getting to spend some special time together.  We went out to lunch, did some shopping, went to Starbucks to get a hot drink and then we went to Crown Hill Park for our winter walk.  Here are some pictures from our walk.

Me with the sun setting in the background.  Mark liked the reflection on the water.

The color of the foliage.  The deep rust with golden grass in back is striking.

Can you make out the bird amongst the branches?  It is a Magpie.

The Canadian Geese have come back to Colorado.  Here some stand while others float as only part of the lake is frozen.

In the distance you can see the Rocky Mountains are covered with snow.  So far there has been very little snow in our area.

Here is my dear husband on the trail.  We had a wonderful day together.

Looking across the lake toward the bell tower in the distance.  Winter has certainly arrived.
