August 25, 2013 - There are a lot of reasons to live where we do

Late summer brings with it a lot of natural wonders if you look for them.  All of the animals around here look fat, the flowers are all bright, the tree leave darker.  Even the mushrooms look fat and ready for the cold weather with is just around the corner.

We plant a garden at the house but at 8900 feet it takes a pretty hearty plant to survive.  Mostly we just let the ones that grow naturally here do their thing.
