So, it's two weeks later, and we're back in Cherry Creek for more fall color!
It's not really clear in this picture, but this IS a natural spring.
My experts tell me that most water, especially high up in the mtns, is fine to drink. But, only if it has been capped and piped up. Don't drink it from the stream or the pool..
So, we could drink this if we catch it from the pipe.
It used to keep that old trough filled; not that much water anymore.
walking.
this time we hiked UP the canyon, and returned by the road.
Clara: friend, Cheebee, teacher,
psychologist, hiker.
Tony, again
with Fred - also a
hiker and a
Cheebee.
Jim
me, again.
I think this is the last hike on which
I carried my staff.
Switched to extendable hiking poles
for flexibility of use, weight, ease
of packing.
sweet blossoms
late in the year.
Funny...we went back for the color, but I see I didn't really take many shots that included examples of that. It was lovely, though. Come see for yourself. :)
And, just FYI, a Cheebee is a fellow Tai Chi student; moniker compliments of Marc. I'll show you a picture of him one of these days.
PS...it's rediculous how tricky it is to get these photos composed on the page!
