Aspen Magic

In her Element

My Isabella-girl favored hanging back with me today versus running with the guys. She had the time of her life exploring every nook and cranny along Aspen View trail. Living in an urban environment, I am so grateful to be able to offer my pups occasional off-lead freedom, outside our glorious dog park.

Broken Heart

- on the mend.

Aspen Magic

Muted

Up on the mountain, a layer of clouds allowed for muted, wintry tones only. Finding beauty in such seems like a great accomplishment, which makes me love this photo only more in its almost abstract quality, exactly how I have seen it.

Along Aspen Trail as the clouds started to disperse 

and the colors started to emerge.

 Finding color and texture in a wintry landscape

 Ah, those Aspen trunks against striated rock.

Eric cuddles Ellie, the bitch that gave him 5 pups.

Rescued, she has come a long ways.

Eric takes my pups along with his on long,

12 mile runs which makes us all very happy.
