a couple of creampuffs

Yesterday morning, I headed to Boulder early for an errand and decided to try and catch the sunrise. Some parts of Denver got snow but at my house we got no more than a dusting. Along Highway 93 though, as I came into Boulder there were the typical white-out conditions. I headed up to Chautauqua Park to snap a few photos. The sun wasn't up enough to bathe the Flatirons but the blasts of snow-blown wind was very invigorating. I had to admire the walkers and runners who were out enjoying the beauty. With enough of the right clothes, you really can be warm.

I realized how much of a cream puff I have turned into. At least I have company in that respect!

windy outside - warm & cozy inside

I have a new project – as if I need any more projects! Today was a very windy day, not uncommon for us here. I was remembering the windstorm with snow that took down my fence last winter. Today there is no snow but I decided that it would be fun to try and take some photos that show the wind. I am not sure how to do it but I tried a few things, that didn’t really work, but I had a good time!! A little diversion from work (I REALLY don’t need any more reasons to take my focus off work – but that is another story that I really don’t want to talk about)

Now what was that new project??
