Spring Skiing

Greetings!

Though the weather has warmed some snow continues to fall … it’s a wonderful time to visit the mountains and take photos.  Last weekend I joined Marty and Paul to ski in the Colorado State Forest on the Jewel Lake Trail (beneath Clark Peak, 12,954’); we spent two nights in a Yurt beautifully nestled in a snow-covered forest (at about 9,600’).  On Wednesday Ed and I skied at Steamboat Springs – our last ski in the area until next year. The beauty and joy of AT skiing (alpine touring) and spring skiing in Steamboat are the lack of other skiers.  Below are a few photos.

Pet Photography

Greetings and hope everyone enjoyed Easter weekend.  We did … nice and sunny for a change.  Saw and heard our first robins … spring truly has arrived (for a while anyway).  Have been considering how to do more with my photography (i.e., make a bit of money); even “briefly” considered doing a few weddings 😦 …  decided upon Pet Photography – there seems to be a niche for this in Laramie and I think I may actually enjoy doing it.  See adverts below.
