Fall Colors in Colorado 2023

There is no greater beauty than the fall season in Colorado. Every year my husband drives me all over the state in search for fall foliage.

Indoor plants are no match for this guy In for my 6th Dopey 💎 Garden leave, book 4: Discipline is Destiny by @ryanholiday. 5/5! My new favorite book. Takeaway: what you spend your time and energy doing becomes who you are, so spend it wisely. Garden leave, stop 6: Santa Monica. Sunset walk with one of my favorites 🧡 Garden leave, stop 5: Disneyland 🏰 Trying to get some use out of my annual pass ☺️ Garden leave, stop 4: the high desert in California. The crossover from frigid winter to blazing summer is in full swing. Celebrated a few weeks ago, but still thinking about that lemon raspberry cheesecake ☺️ He believed in us before we ever did. The passing of @jeffgallowayolympian is an unimaginable loss for the @rundisney community today 💙💚 May his positivity continue to encourage us on our hardest days and runs, one footfall at a time. Garden leave, book 3: “The Obstacle is the Way” by @ryanholiday. 5/5. Takeaways: 1) No one is coming to save you, 2) Don’t wait for an epiphany in order to begin, 3) Focus on the problem, not your reaction to it. Garden leave, book 2: “Possible Minds.” 2/5. It is a very dense read of multiple essays and I couldn’t feign any more interest after two weeks. I design for AI and I can’t even stand this book. Abandoning it for the second time! Garden leave, book 1: “Life is in the Transitions.” 4/5. Takeaways: 1) Embrace the chaos 2) No one has their life together 3) There’s not one right way to approach change. Garden leave, stop 3: Disney World for the Festival of the Arts 🎨  A good time as always Home life 🐾 Garden leave, stop 2: Seattle! It was great seeing some familiar faces 💙
