I picked up some Colorado wildflower, butterfly and bird guides this week. I thought it would make our hikes more interesting. We did a beautiful hike at O'Fallen Park. The place was covered with flowers. It was so fun to stop, look at a flower and then identify it from our handbook. We saw larkspur, golden banner, columbine, blue bell and wild rose to name a few. We also identified a lot of bushes and different kinds of pine trees. Jenelle loves to collect pine cones. Now we know what tree they came from. It is really hard to identify butterflies. They won't sit still! Curt actually caught one, but it got away before we could figure out what it was.
