First Snow in Vail, CO

Posted by frek on September 16, 2006

Mostly a rainy day here in the Valley with a little snow mixed in. I’m hearing the pass is white- out conditions with a 7 car pile up.

Weekend Anglers…..?

Posted by frek on August 13, 2006

Well…certainly Denton & Logan have skills. Nice day on the Eagle River, just east of its entry into the Colorado River (Eagle & Avon, CO.)

……just before the Eagle meets the Colorado/ Logan Mulcrone (of the Chicago Mulcrones)

Denton Crofts has skills

Denton Crofts, Idaho- raised, master of fly placement………the result

Jersey- boy, “Where the fish at?” / ”Diego thinks he’s an outdoorsman”

More out behind the house in Avon, Vail Valley, CO

Denver, CO views toward the Rockies (mostly)

Posted by frek on July 12, 2006

Strictly (obviously) an amateur here. Have been in the habit lately of snapping pics from our Beauvallon deck, at sunset and toward the Rocky Mountains. Will include some below……………..and may update this post if any others worth sharing are taken.

For perspective:

Look carefully and you can see the Michael Graves Library and the new Daniel Libeskind Art Museum.
