When I was growing up in Texas (way back when!), my parents loved loading up the old Oldsmobile and driving northwest to Colorado. I was always amazed that we would leave hot and humid Texas and arrive in dry and cool Colorado. Even in May, there was still snow in the mountains. The snow would sparkle in the sun, and the little me, back then, knew there were diamonds in the snow :-).
I also adored the ground squirrels and chipmunks that would dart from rock to bush at the speed of light. Chipmunks are just so darned cute! Yesterday, we spotted this one strategically positioned at a picnic site in the Rocky Mountain National Park.
