Outdoor Wednesday hosted by Susan at,A Southern Daydreamer, is for all us who love the great outdoors. Thank you Susan for hosting such a fun and lovely event. I truly love this fun event and you will too if you take time to visit Susan's blog and visit the many bloggers who also love the great outdoors.
Loving our vacation...Jeanne
We visited Grand Lake in the Rocky Mountains and had a picnic in this Pioneer Garden. The bonus was these two adorable dogs playing catch with their owner. Our picnic was a bit meager but the location was gorgeous. Who cares about food when being outdoors on a beautiful day is such a blessing.
Loving our vacation...Jeanne
I am closing my eyes, and pretending like I am there with you. It is beautiful.
Love you.

Aaaahhhhh the outdoors - fresh air, nice view, yummy meal :-). Also, the garden is so vast - perfect for those dogs to run with :-)
The daffodil's color is so bright and really pops from the greens. Oh and I think the burgers and apples are just perfect for this place. you get to hold your food while enjoying the garden :-)
Happy Outdoor Wednesday!

Jeanne, What a perfect post for Outdoor Wednesday.
The garden is lovely and I was shocked to see tulips at this time of year, but then it is north and in the mountains.
So glad you are having a great trip. Be safe.
Hugs.

One of the lovely things I remember about beautiful Colorado is how bright the color of flowers seemed to be. Not sure why they seemed brighter there but they did.
We had some wonderful times in and around Montrose. Bill's brother and sister in law were there with us and oh, the sightseeing trips we made. Such fun...and my kids were little and they had a blast on the snow slopes.
Glad you are having such a great time..Take care and stay safe.

Jeanne, thanks for stopping by my blog to see Outdoor Wednesday. I LOVE your pictures of Colorado. The sign about the flowers is so very interesting as I love history and have enjoyed reading about the early settlers to that area. Thanks for sharing. Linda

So glad you are loving your vacation - beats being home cleaning and doing laundry, ha! ha!
I've been having trouble opening up your blog for about a week - tonight I'm able to see your great pics and read about your fun travels.
As Beverly says, wish I was there with you.......but at least I'll be out there next month enjoying the great American west.
Continue to have loads of fun dear Jeanne.....when do you return to NC?
Hugs - Mary

Jeanne, I am blown away by these drawings! I'm an oil panietr, and also a quilter. You might want to consider joining the ranks of fabric designers I'd love to be able to buy these on fabric!
