Mountain Mondays
As you may know, I am usually not short on words when I write these posts. However, no words can really describe the beauty of the change of seasons here in the mountains. I thought I would share the experience with you this year.

Beautiful pictures, I love the butterfly:)
I hope our Autumn weather cooperates with the season more than our Summer weather did! I think we had about 5 days of summer. However, this time of year is probably my favorite, and always makes me yearn for a trip to the mountains. Glad to see you’re enjoying yours!
Just lovely…these pictures make me miss my home…Colorado is lovely during this time of year too!
