We don't have many deer here on the ranch, but there are occasionally a few that hang around for the summer. I woke up this morning to find these two eating my "deer resistant" wildflowers. Go figure.
Welcome to my blog. It is my intention to introduce you to the hidden secrets of Colorado as only a long time resident knows. Join me as I take you on a journey through my eyes as I was introduced to Colorado. Together we will explore the wildlife, the beautiful mountains, wildflowers, local foods, sheep ranching (an age old profession complete with a sheep herder and his dogs). Stay tuned for continuous updates of my world and the things I love.

Escape to Mexico
Spring weather in Colorado is very unpredictable. This year has been no exception. It has rained and snowed constantly for the past few weeks. We always plan a vacation in May to escape the dreary weather. This year we spent 9 days in Playa del Carmen, Mexico at a beautiful resort, Secrets Capri.
It is common to find a fish pond in hotel lobby's, but this resort had a turtle pond with 49 turtles. They would occasionally get out of the pond and wander around the lobby until someone found them and put them back in the water. LOL. We often stopped by at feeding time to feed them.
One of our awful selfies. This is my first and last!!
I was fascinated by the Coatis. I had never seen or heard of them prior to this trip. They are known as a Mexican racoon with a very long tail. They run around so fast that I couldn't get a picture.
This is one picture that I snapped of its face as he was hiding in a bush. Look at the bottom in the middle of the photo to see his cute face.

Cabanas at the pool I spent hours around the pool reading, sunning and relaxing. Too Perfect |
