Denver and the Front Range of Colorado finally received some snow yesterday after a month of sunny skies and temperatures mostly in the 60s and 70s, making for a winter wonderland across the area, especially in Golden, where I took the photograph above of the Clear Creek Trail, with the Golden History Park and Table Mesa in the background. The Golden History Park, by the way, features cabins and a one-room schoolhouse from the 1800s, and on a day like this it makes you realize how hard life must have been back then for those early pioneers, especially during the winter months. In any case, the weather forecasters predict temperatures will return to the 50s all next week, and so it will be a very brief taste of winter. Everyone is hoping that March and April, which are traditionally the snowiest months of the year, will bring the snowpack back close to average. The only thing we can do now is just enjoy the snow while it is still here.
