Turquoise Lake near Leadville Colorado
Molly Brown Campground
|
It has been a very dry year in Colorado, yet there are
still some wildflowers. Nature always
gives her best and though the drought has made blooming more difficult; many
meadows are beginning to put on a show. The
flowers are smaller and fewer, but they are bright with color.

Turquoise Lake is feeling the drought too with water levels
a little lower than last year. Still it
has been a beautiful week camping around this lovely lake. Fire restrictions are in place and no campfires
are allowed. But that just makes more
time for sitting or strolling by the lake.
We’ve enjoyed two meals with our camping buddies, Dustin, Melissa and
Rocky, some hikes and a train ride. I’ll
talk more about those things later but in the meantime, here are a few photos
from the week.
