Beaver Dam

Not actually sure if it's a bearer dam (I would have had to head back in the direction I came, went over a bridge then went back down to get a closer look) but it looks like a beaver damn. Taken at South Platte River Park in Littleton Colorado.

Ale--the reason for the season.

"Like snowflakes, my Christmas memories gather and dance. Each beautiful, unique, and gone too soon." ~

We understand that for many, the holiday season may present a particular type of grief. An empty chair at the table, the lack of laughter, the echoes of ooos and ahhs, the brightness in eyes that we cling to so dearly. The moments that we didn't know we would miss as much as we do now. The parts of people that we wish we had paid more attention to.

The Columbine families have now had more holidays without their loved ones, then they ever had with them. Hanukkah's, Christmas', Birthday's, Thanksgiving's, the days that are supposed to bring us together. And how can we ever truly feel together-ness, when we may never again feel whole without them.

"A place where people can come to pay their respects. Where students can have some peace. Where parents can feel closer..."~ 'I Walk With Each of You', Act 2 Epilogue Scene

Last year, the Columbine Memorial Foundation was thousands of dollars short within their yearly funds to upkeep the maintenance and cleanliness of the space. Please consider donating this holiday season to maintain the one-of-a-kind Memorial and to help keep the legacy of Columbine alive forever. For these families, the Columbine Memorial very well could be the closest memory of touch that they may have of their loved ones.

We ask that you please keep the families of Rachel, Danny, Dave, Kyle, Steven, Cassie, Isaiah, Matthew, Lauren, John, Kelly, Daniel, and Corey, in your thoughts and prayers this holiday season. We wish you all a peaceful and safe December and a Happy New Year. May their memories be a blessing.

Celebrating a Big Day - Littleton, CO

We spent the day in Littleton - it was our friend Kathy's 60th birthday. We played a little pickleball in the morning, luckily, the temperatures had dropped and it was a bit cloudy. It was a ton of fun to get out on the court with these two - can't wait to do it again! We went out to lunch, with Kathy, Roger, Art, & Donna at Postino's. We had a great time. We were already to leave, when a hailstorm hit - so we had to buy another round of drinks and wait the storm out! Such a rough life!!

South Platte River

A tributary of the Platte River. It flows from the Rockies though Denver  and merges with the North Platte River in Nebraska. This part is near the southern edge of the Denver Metro Aria. So it might be a good place to fish, before the river collects all the trash and pollutants of the city. Taken at South Platte Park in Littleton Colorado. Like my photos?
