Chapel on the Rock

 In 2013 Boulder country, as well as most of the "front range", experienced a stalled weather system that dropped over a foot and a half of rain in just three days. Everywhere that water flowed experienced severe flooding that scoured the landscape. A lessor known casualty of that flooding was the reflective pond in front of the Chapel on the Rock.  Last year the flood control measures on the Chapel property were completed and the reflection pond had returned. Here is what it looks like now.

#WednesdayWindows - Ft Lupton

This being a fortress, not a lot of Windows to be found:

A few more Windows and all of the Doors coming tomorrow on my Other Blog.

As promised I had to post some of the spectacular views from the Courthouse Windows

#WednesdayWindows : Windows & Walls

Windows open the world to us.  But there may be Walls blocking the way!

Don't let the Walls Stop You!  Go around them, climb over them, or if necessary go through them!

More of the Corn palace

A few more of the Corn Palace murals.

This was interesting because it showed an area being resurfaced. Since the surface material is taken from corn stocks. The mural is set up like a paint by numbers project.

Illegal fort

Illegal fort near Custer SD. This stockade fort was constructed by a group of adventurers looking for gold in the Black Hills. They needed a fort to protect themselves from the local Indians whose land they were encroaching upon.

Gurley Tracks

Please note that I was not standing on active train tracks. This was a siding that ends just outside of the frame. I was able to shoot this from a public road.
