I can imagine leaf turning is a hard thing to time. Better luck next year, maybe? You can still go on the East Coast soon for the beautiful fall foliage.

Hi David, I hope you are safe from all the flooding. Thank you for your comment and I do hope you make it to Maroon Bells sometime. It is magnificent. It would have been even better with snow, but I am too early for that treat.

We’re quite safe from the flooding. Wintertime would seem to be the ideal time to visit there, especially when it’s bone-chilling cold. That’s when you have the place nearly to yourself.
