Colorful, Cool Canyon

An lovely ride in the canyon, on the Alpine Loop. In my arms the brilliant colors I wish to scoop. Or march around snapping photos like a scout troop. Very soon the cold & storms will make them droop. Good bye, Oh Poop!

Last year we went too late to see the autumn leaves and missed them. Even though it is still summer, the storms and cold will beat the color out of them. Splashes of bright red, scarlet, burgundy, orange, rust, yellow, tan and green hues dotted the mountain slopes.

Then a storm rolled in a few days later stealing away the best ones. Who knows what happened or it looks like now.
