We were in the Vail Valley last week.   It was incredibly beautiful. And the perfect temperature…in the shade. I have 1000s of pictures.   Approximately 67% of them are of poppies. The poppies were so vivid.   I may post a poppy a day for the rest of the year… Many of the photos above are from the Betty Ford Alpine Garden in Vail, CO.   I hope to put together a whole post about the gardens and kids’ park because it is one of the prettiest places in the world.   I would move in to the Garden Museum, if they would let me.

  1. Nice pics;

    I’m live in Colorado so this is my backyard!! Of course it’s about a 2 1/2 hour ride to my yard but hey…

  2. So gorgeous! I love Colorado in the Summer for many reasons. Thanks for sharing these ‘slices’! 🙂

  3. Love the Poppies!! Miss Colorado. 🙁

    Great pictures, and it’s nice to see someone enjoy Vail without snow, although I do love it with the snow very much. 🙂

  4. Beautiful shots! I’m impressed at your brave boy in the first one. Mine is too chicken to do anything “high”.

    I have to say I miss read the Betty Ford thing. For a minute there, I thought you went to a Betty Ford Clinic. Bhaaa haaa!
