About this blog:
We love traveling. We always capture tons of pictures from wherever we've been and we like sharing our traveling experiences with our friends. So, this is how this blog began - as short stories with pictures in an attempt to share where we've been and what we've seen. Even not stories , but just notes. Nothing serious and big. Mostly I'm writing these stories on a rush and sometimes even don't have time to re-read them. So, I apologize in advance for possible typos here and there. There can be some factual errors or inaccuracies and they even might be corrected one day. Don't hesitate to contact me if you find something that needs to be fixed and don't expect these notes to be a perfect novels ;) The stories in this blog are not in chronological order, but I will try to remember to put the date of the trip. So... welcome to this blog and, hopefully, you will find something interesting and have the same feeling we had when we were there. Let's go...
And... by the way... all pictures and texts in this blog are protected by International and USA Copyright laws, so if you'd like to repost or use something on your page - contact me first.
Using anything published here without permission is violation of the law and... it isn't really nice...

Flowers in July

Colorado Winter is hardly cold. Some days are but mostly the weather is mild. And we also have a lot of really warm days. But... from time to time... the cold storm comes and the gloomy chilly days make us stay inside and not leave the house as long as we can. And the best way to warm up during this period is a cup of hot tea (or coffee if you prefer) and memories... Memories of a hot day in July when the hot air is wrapping you up and bright flowers please your eyes... and... yes, this is a Prickly Lettuce, the flower you can see in details here - One flower show...

 
Not only flowers are nice looking, but insects too ;) Like this adorable Ladybug...


And... to help your memory bring up a perfect Summer day let's look at some more pictures...



Prickly Lettuce early morning looks like that.


Another prickly flower - Prickly Poppy. I love this one!







Prickly Lettuce before opening the flower buds.




Yep. You are right. Three acorns are growing on this oak branch.
