A morning stroll in Garden of the Gods

We had our first "big" snowfall this week (big being a relative term). Here's a few shots taken the morning after in my favorite garden.

My happy flower vase!

This week gladiolas are on sale at our local supermarket - $1 per bunch/bouquet. I love gladiolas and I love having fresh cut flowers in our home. I often purchased them in Germany because they were such a great price. I seldom buy them here because they are more expensive. Couldn't resist this good deal, though!

Hiking Mt. Cutler

Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day in Colorado Springs, so we headed out to hike a new trail - Mt. Cutler - only 25 minutes from our house. Once again we enjoyed spectacular views which included the beautiful colors of fall in the city of Colorado Springs, and the plains to the east of us, and the mountains to the west - in fact we were hiking in them! (The last two pictures were taken by Tim on his iPhone).

Fall in Colorado Springs

Yesterday morning I took my camera when I did my exercise route in our neighborhood. The fall colors are so beautiful right now. I am very fortunate and grateful to enjoy such incredible views when I am hiking and running - a wonderful gift from my Creator!
