day out with sam

sam and i found our selves at home watching Hillary R. Clinton on cspan...... he and i had already spent an hour in our neighbors portion of the garden - digging.

sam wanted to go up to the mountains and i wanted to go up to pilfer rocks for the new garden space that we're setting up - in our neighbors yard.


so we headed out towards golden.......





it was buffalo bill days in golden.....but nothing was going on so we went to the general store for some fun.....









we then headed to coal creek canyon. i've only been up this canyon once along time ago. yesterday’s weather was perfect for what we found......







here's where i found the rocks for the garden.....it was misty and muddy but fun



we rounded the bend to find a train across the path. ....we had around a fifteen-minute wait so we got out to explore













gross reservoir was our next stop



gross is full this year which looks great! the last few years’ low snowfall had left it quite low
