Colorado Skies





On a recent trip to the U.S., we drove to Colorado to visit Mesa Verde National Park.




The park was wonderful...we had a grand day exploring the cliff dwellings and soaking up the history of this ancient site.

.

As it came time to leave the park, storms clouds formed and rain began to fall on the plain below us. I could not tear myself away from the beautiful skies that resulted.

These are a few of my favourites from that evening...

I’m linking this post to ‘Looking At The Sky Friday’, graciously hosted by CrAzY Working Mom at the link below. Do stop by for skies that will inspire!
