View from Lake Dillon
My trip to Lake Dillon and Breckenridge this week was beautiful, and thought I’d share some photos. Particularly beautiful are the California Poppies and native Columbine. The arid climate with extreme heat and extreme cold isn’t easy for most plants, but those that are native are certainly beautiful. Pine beetles have left much of the mountainside a shade of brown, and much has been clearcut, but the wildflowers are spectacular. It doesn’t hurt that it’s not as hot and humid as Tallahassee.
