Retreat

June, but it is just spring in the mountains of Colorado. The new green leaves on the birch and aspen trees shine against the dark green of pines and spruce.

I am on retreat in Colorado this week.

The last day of my retreat, and the desert is in bloom.

Mike and I planned to camp in the desert next to Lake Powell. We bought an inflatable canoe so that we could go out on the lake. But like the "best laid plans of mice and men," things went astray.

Tea in the rain.
