Fall color update: Aspen changing season still a week away

September 15th, 2008, 7:24 am · 2 Comments · posted by Dave Philipps

I was up in the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Saturday and only a few isolated aspen had started to turn.I take it as a sign that it will be at least a week, maybe two, before the peak change.  There was lots of snow up there, another sign of fall.

On the way home, I saw a sign I’m not sure how to interpret.  On Highway 9, just southeast of Fairplay where the road crosses a wide valley and hits a long, north-south ridge, there is a billboard. On the back, someone has attached a large, hand-painted image of olive loaf.  Who? I don’t know. It is simply signed, “Loyd.”  What: A lunch meat that is basically bologna with green olives. Why?  Again, not sure. Perhaps it is guerilla art.
