SKY HI

Brilliant color of bougainvillea
in Mexico

It is a big change.  We go from sea level to 8,400 altitude and it takes time to make the adjustment.  Mexico is so colorful and the high country has a different beauty and color.  Lots of of blue sky and we have snow in some areas most of the summer.  Spring seems to come late but when it is here, it happens fast.

We have few full time residents, some weekenders and many summer people. Some days in May, only two or three cars go down the dirt road in front of our house.

There was very little snow this winter, so we don't have to deal with the mud season (May).  It is still cold in the mornings and if we are  lucky will warm up during the day.  It is the normal spring weather that is windy and cloudy in the afternoons.

I have the urge to go to the wonderful nursery that we have here but I know from the experience of loosing everything, it is too early. Last year we had snow on June 20th, although it doesn't last long, we can lose all the flowers. We have a saying, "If you don't like the weather, wait a few minutes and it will change." 

I am trying to learn a new program that was installed on my blog site and using a new camera (my old one is having problems).

We have 'Never Summer' range, appropriately named.
Colorado

Patches of snow can be seen until June
or later.       Colorado

The Aspen trees are showing leaves in the last two weeks, Colorado.

The Canadian Cherry trees just blossomed in the last three days.

The animals have eaten most of my bulbs

The chives are so prolific, wish I could give them away

We always lose a few scrubs in the cold winter.
