Montana Blues

little forget-me-nots

turning pink lavenders 

ending up 

blue

dressed in raindrops

sometimes the blues of our lakes 

seem magical

last night we had a wonderfully dramatic storm

thunder 

some lightening

wind

this morning blue skies, white clouds and a green earth

(above)

blue seems the perfect color for a sky

I think it compliments our entire world

~

gotta love the tipping bales of hay

mountains deep blue

sky

nearly aqua blue

mist and clouds mingling with both

if one is willing to climb high

into the mountains

in the midst of summer

they will find mineral rich aqua icy waters

against a fabulous blue sky

near sunset

downtown Whitefish Montana

heavenly little clouds drifting in the blue sky

Summer is Pouring on the Heat

amongst the hot days

there is water

cooling

cleansing

refreshing 

waters

large vistas 

to dream into

alpine waters dancing down the mountains

rivers singing 

with all their might

lovely forget me nots

reminding us of grace and beauty

 

new life entering our world

prancing about our meadows

napping in the shade

~

wishing you sweet summer (some of you; winter) days

and 

nights

Many Glacier, Montana

on a breeze

the high mountains

called to me

i felt it in my heart

and in my blood

after a long winter 

wandering dirt roads, hiking trails and camping

is essential

the Eastern Rockies are wild and gorgeous

yet tenderness can be found:

photos are the trail to Iceberg Lake

are the Rockies now calling your name?
