    Spring Morning in Fort Collins

    April 30, 2019

    Here are a couple of images from Rowland Moore Park taken about 7:30 this morning. I will guess we have 4-6 inches of snow from this storm. While wandering around the park this morning I was surprised with how much water is flowing into the ponds. They will be full before this day is over. Thankfully we are not cold and therefore it will melt quickly and give us much needed moisture. One weather station said we have 3.8 inches.

    It is time for my yearly physical and I also need one before the cataract surgery. So, that will happen this morning. No coffee or food for right now. Stay warm!

    Silly Weather

    April 29, 2019

    Taken on the bus and one of the most common scenes I find on the bus or on campus. Love the light on her face.

    We had a wonderful weekend, warm and sunny. But, it’s cold and overcast this morning. Looking like a fall day rather than spring day. Rightly so as we are expecting a winter storm over the next three days. Rain starting later today and turning to snow through the night. They say it will linger for a few days, bringing a snow and rain mix with temperatures at the freezing mark. I’m okay with the moisture but prefer the mid 40’s temperatures. I think I’ve mentioned that before. I saw this morning a prediction of 3-7 inches of snow and I suspect it will be wet and heavy snow. So you may see another winter scene or two posted. Stay warm!

    Spiral

    April 25, 2019

    It’s about time to get back on my bicycle after a long hiatus due to lack of energy, then surgery and recovery and now the weather is getting nice again. I’m now at a local coffee shop while I have some work done on my car. Seems it needs surgery, also. This image is one of the unique bicycle racks around town. Some are truly pieces of art.

    It looks like I will have surgery on my left on May 8th then the right eye on June 4th. I had some difficulty with insurance but that is all straightened out. I will be flying to Phoenix on May 10th to celebrate my parents 70th anniversary.

    Doors in Alleys

    April 24, 2019

    “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.” Corrie Ten Boom

    Doors found in the back alley of Old Town Fort Collins. I’d venture to say this morning that there does not exist a street photographer that does not have at least a hundred images, maybe thousands, of doors in alleys.
