21. It's the view down into the Telluride valley
from the Black Bear Pass road. Good story, buddy of mine became less than ambulatory after a bailing-wire failure on the axle of a truck in Mali he was riding in... long story short, he popped up to CO for a visit and we did the 4x4 roads, bringing his chair for stops along the way.

Cool pics on your part! I love snowshoeing. :)

17. All of these are lovely
I have a digital camera now; I'm going to have to learn how to take beautiful photos like these. I bought it to take pictures of my beautiful niece so I call it the Annie-cam.

30. Damn... after a good idea like that, I don't think we can call you a dingbat anymore.
