The Joys of Colorado Weather







Colorado has an interesting weather pattern. It does not stay cold for very long in the fall, winter, or spring. Today it snowed and snowed and snowed. I estimate there was at least 4 inches of snow on the ground. It was a heavy, wet snow, which was good for snowballs and making snowmen. After being cooped up in the house all day, we decided to go out and 35 degrees with the sun actually is not that cold. We saw some neighbors with their children playing in the snow and we joined them. We then decided to go on a trip through the countryside.

A horse came right up to me on the side of the road.





Just four weeks ago, it was 70 degrees and we were hiking in the mountains. Colorado is truly a great place to live if one likes the extreme variations in temperature.

  2. I really do not know that that means, either. I liked the colors of the template and went for it. :)
