A few pics I took before the big snow fall in Colorado.

I woke up to low clouds here in Parachute. I had a few hours before my chains arrived for my truck. I had to purchase new ones because I had taken mine out and had left them in good ole' Provo. DUH.... I couldn't go up the mountain until they were on so I decided to capture some fall colors.

These pictures don't capture the beauty but I can remember what I was thinking and how it felt to be out here. I took some pics on top of the moutain as the sun started to appear and they turned out surprisingly well. I want to post them as soon as I can find my camera!






This pic was taken a few miles SW between Parachute and DeBeque. The Colorado River is prettier this time of year because it is more blue and not so brown.



As I've learned to do, [and because Cortney has reminded me to do so] I've taken the pic while in my truck...I wanted to capture the low clouds covering the mountains.




























I wish I had taken some closer pic of the river as it winds arounds the trees.




Tickles from the net...
Some of the musical hits of the 60s are being revised with new lyrics to accomodate the aging baby boomers, like:
-Herman's Hermits: "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Walker"
-Bobby Darin" "Splish, Splash, I Was Having a Flash"
-Leo Sayer: "You Make Me Feel Like Napping"
-Helen Reddy: "I am Woman, Hear Me Snore"
-Willie Nelson: "On The Throne Again"
-Ringo Snarr: "I Get By With a Little Help From Depends"
-Marvin Gaye "I Heard It Through The Grape Nuts"
What words were replaced?

Here is your music. Hope it is what you were looking for...and some of the answers I think I know off the top of my head are: I was taking a bath, hear me roar, on the road again, and I heard it through the grape vine. The others I will have to google, just don't have the time right now! Thanks for the fun game! Love ya!
