Happy November

From Switzerland 

🇨🇭 We are home again, after nice visits with family. Autumn is well advanced, but the leaves are not entirely fallen from the trees.



The birches, firs, and wisteria.

Golden, Colorado

Pioneer Town



The town is full of beautiful bronze sculptures.


And it has empty hills all around it, no creeping urban sprawl.




It retains an old flavor - no urban renewal here.


Coors beer was born here

The building above, where we had a fine dinner….


Clear Creek, the heart of the town


This butte ( not including the photographer’s finger) is the town symbol.


Manhole cover


It’s an artsy town, lovely for tourist browsing.












City park






Goodbye, Golden.

Colorado Autumn

Big Buck

When the wildlife thinks you are on his land. He had no fear of nearby people, even when target practice was going on.
