Wet stuff

Since I haven't been blogging that long, I thought I'd set myself a record for not blogging.

We've been traveling a fair amount lately. Well, it is "Spring Break". Our latest expedition took us to Colorado with the purpose of checking out the University of Colorado in Denver where Lizzy, our daughter, shows a faint interest in attending the Film School. I'll install images as I gradually awake and recover from the stresses and strains of these ordeals.
First, a telling glimpse of the extreme conditions of the local terrain. A frozen lake in the High Country of New Mexico:



Then, rising and dropping, and finally dropping down (talking altitude here, of course) into Pagosa Springs in Colorado. Big hot springs scene. I had to put up with sights like this at the motel:

I stay away from water. Nasty wet stuff, but my family seems to enjoy it. Others do too, so perhaps there is some kind of mysterious pleasure in wallowing in it. Note the multicolored sediments that built up over the years on the wall. The charming couple are enjoying their tall, cool drinks while their butts and other parts dissolve in that 105*F mineral mix:


In another pool, an interesting triangle:


View towards the river with still frozen mountains in the distance:
