Sprinkles, veggies, and nature






Grand fun happening here. Lisa & Charles made it up and we are so excited to have them. We sat out on the deck (of course) and amazing, three elk showed to say hi to them. We have not seen any elk for a week now, and were positive that they had all left for the summer.
Went to the farmer's market in Crested Butte - lots of fun. My Thistle Whistle Farm guy was not there, but other organic farmers were. And, so as not to confuse, that's not our Parker Pasture Farm group in the photo. It's the brother and his farm is outside Gunnison and he does the CB market. Bought veggies, ate some bits & pieces and then it decided to rain on us. Unusual - we need rain and none has been falling.
We hiked the trail to the beaver ponds on Ohio Pass before it started sprinkling. Lisa saw a yellow columbine among many groups of regular blooms. Good catch! I looked it up, and it's not wild, somehow a hybrid plopped itself in the woods.
