Taylor River |
We are adjusting nicely to the slower pace and loving the burst of flowers and green everywhere. Didn't expect that Gunnison/Crested Butte would be having the same backorder/shortages that everywhere else big city seems to be having, but yup, it's here too. We have a weird assortment of things on backorder: ATV, sunshades for the dining room, and two large spruce trees (the backorder part is the installation). We'll see which things come in first.
Mark's big adventure at Taylor Reservoir with his new fishing kayak. Very stable and lightweight. I was there to help but it wasn't needed. He caught a lot of fish keeping a few to smoke. They were yummy.

All these photos were taken at Star Mt. We are so lucky to have these magnificent views everywhere you look. The larkspur are out in full force this year so not sure how long before our rancher put the cattle into Star Mt. The larkspur are beautiful but poisonous to cattle so they'll have to die down before the pile of steers come in. Our gates will have to stay shut until October to keep the cattle away from the house.
Wild iris are a sure sign that summer is here. Temps are warming up and no freeze warnings in the next 10 days. It is amazing but Father's Day is true last frost date here.
