On this day...

I was looking back through some old pics and thought it might be fun to do some On This Day posts.

In 2006, I was about to leave the job that had worn me down over 8.5 years. My seventh boss in that time was my undoing. Couldn't hack breaking in yet another boss.

For me, these pics are fairly prosaic but for others? Probably exotic.

In 2007, we had been in Colorado for hmm 10 days. We went for a drive up the Poudre Canyon. I was still struggling to drive on the correct side of the road... LOL

It totally blew us away.

I so want to grow one of these - Colorado's state flower, a white and blue-mauve columbine.

More pics here.

2008? We stayed home. But we still saw some nifty stuff around this day, like Ainsley House:

(OK, I cheated, that was taken on 3rd July 2008, but then I used 4th of July photos in the 2006.)

2009... The trip to Yellowstone.

But my faves are still the pics we took at the Grand Tetons on the 30th of June and the 1st of July.

A few more pics here. I should edit the rest of the good ones cos believe it or not, there are many more where these came from. Only problem is I am not terribly discriminating.

Enjoy!
