DAY 100 Grand Day

I love mud season. Most people don't like it because, umm, it's really muddy. messy. sludgy. Skiing is kind of over and there is too much snow to hike very far. But .... no traffic coming back from our beautiful Grand County. The best part is the color sneaking through. Huge 5 foot deep snow drifts melting and looking like whipped cream. Green sprouts shooting up all over, birds everywhere. Huge moose prints in my yard, as if I couldn't tell they were there. They annihilated my tiny struggling aspen tree. Those small green branches must have tasted quite good, it is pruned down to a stick. Driving home watching the light and color, quickly changing clouds and sunlight hitting the half snowy hillsides. It was a grand day watching spring arrive.
