I love this state......... and the history behind it.

Can you see all the tailings piles? :) :o B)

I love the skies here! ^_^

And when the day is over............it makes you glad your here in Colorado. :)

My god those are beautiful pictures!! I especially like the 3rd and 4th ones!! Thanks for sharing those Denise!!

Kriss

and pic#3...also taken last week.

It's been raining/snowing alot this week, I might take more tomorrow during the day!

Gotta luv them clouds 'eh?, The oregon beach between storms.

Top of the World looking out to the Ocean between the storms, this was several years ago as a christmas card cover that we sent out to family in AZ.

Great pictures!!! B)
Now you hit my weakness. ;)
That 2nd pic of yours Isn't boring at all Kriss.......quite the opposite I think.
I saw lots of things with my imagination in those clouds, very pretty. Thank you.
I agree Mark, Its the only kind of TV I get these days. I mostly listen to music.
Great pics Redpaw, did you say you took those pics?
Here is another of mine.....

denise, if you sqwint real hard on your first picture ,towards the upper center of the picture,you could just bearly make out where id like to live!!!!!!!!! haha!!!!!! those pictures are truly beautiful!!!come on clorado rally time!!!

Your making me homesick....... I left 25 years ago, I still get back 2-3 times a year but, that's still not enough. Thanks for the pitures and memories...... :)

Hi sgaolson,
Do you like to fish? :)
Here is one of the guys fishing on the Yankee Doodle. They caugth a total of 28 fish in about 3 hours between the 3 of them. ^_^ :P :D
We had a great day......And buy the way, they threw all the fish back. ;)

That's some nice lookin bedrock there. I promise to be real quiet with the dredge so as not to disturb your fish'n Only kidd'n I used to go up to 11 Mile Canyon below the dam and do some trout fishing. Also did some snagg'n in the reservior too.
I tried to post one of my pictures but it was to big, how do you reduce them to fit??? :(

What I was thinking, was we could dredge after we fish... :D :D

If you dont have a program that will resize your photos, you can always send them to me, and I can resize them and send them back to you. ;)
You can always reach us at webmaster@coloradoprospector.com

We would be glad to help.

Okay! The sky pictures were all I needed to make me add one of my favorites. It's not Colorado though. It was New Years at Stanton arizona. This is Dave with Venus in the background.
Leonard

Leonard That is one way COOL picture!!! B)

Leonard sent me a program called IrFan View, but I'm to stupid to figure out how it works. I remember how intellegent I felt showing my Dad how to stop the clock from flashing on the VCR. Now, my son comes over to show me how to use the surround sound

Hi Leonard,
Welcome to the forums.
Great picture!! If you have more, I would love to see them. :)
Im a sucker for a good picture. ;)

Denise
:)

Here's my favorite picture.(doom and destruction sky.
mom says thats a typical teenager for ya. )
Mrs. CP takes her camera out every morning , onto the deck and gets a sunrise picture almost every day :P :) this is one of 'em.
She stares and she stares and she stares at the sky every day.
(I wonder why,as the 3 year old screams in the backround. )

:o wow...I LOVE that pic...so much red in it...

awesome shot Denise!! thanks for sharing boy detector!!!


Kriss

Thanks for the help Denise, this is from the "Flats" at Douglas Creek Wyo. Just after a storm

Anytime sgaolson. Great picture!! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks Kriss, boy detector knows skies are my weakness. A mom has to get a break anyway we can right? ^_^ :P :)
Can you see the baby the herd is protecting?? ^_^ :)

With a little duct tape and WD-40 I think we can get it running again. What do you think?

Can anyone guess where this is?

Just a guess....... Grand Tetons?

Better bring two rolls of duct tape for the old truck above though.....

Love the Pics D and ya know what the men who made the colorado roads must have been drunk never been on such wild and curvy roads ours go straight up and down guess that is Why the 4 wheel drive was invented in wyo
A few yrs back me and Rob took a trip up one of them straight up and down roads and when we got to the top I could swear I was looking at gods feet as I couldn't see anything below us just up and there was puffy clouds with little rays of sunshine coming through. And of course Rob being the man he is he forgot the camera but it was our 2nd honeymoon so I could forgive him ;)

Too far west Denise, a little closer to your home and a little farther north.
As you can see in the other picture "Dredge Boy" was looking pretty hard at that truck, he made the "fella" an offer but, his credit was so bad he couldn't get financing. So he's still hoff'in it! :P

Heya Denise!! I've been "out of commission" for a few days with a nasty dose of poison oak, had to go to the ER for a shot yesterday and I'm finally getting to go out mining again with Bill today!!! I cant wait!! He's been finding some GOOD gold on our claim...pickers/nuggets etc!! He told me he was gonna find a nugget the other day...and he sure as hell did!! Our claim is lookin' real good!!!

Anywho... got up early and I went outside this morning and took this...thought you'de like it. It looks so pretty outside right now...it's supposed to start raining in a bit so be prepared in a few days for rain/snow!! It's headed your way!!!!!

Kriss

I call it cloud face.

Denise
:)

Thats awesome! Bill liked it too...the face is so noticeable in that!! I was supposed to go with him today to take pix in different areas of our claim...he found a kick butt waterfall that he says I'm gonna LOVE, but I can't go! :( My little "gold-minder"(as she calls it) is sick and we don't want to drag her around outside until her cough chills out some. I cant wait to see the pictures he brings home today!!

look at the link below....scroll down to the second entry with the pic...thats some of what we got the other day on our claim. Things are looking VERY promising for us there!

kriss

Sweet looking spot Kriss!! :o
I hope the little "gold-minder ^_^" feels better soon.
Looks like the claim is turning out to be a great one. Thanks for sharing the pics.

sgolsen, that waterfall looks like it's *either* the Yellowstone or Clark's Fork of the Yellowstone. How far off am I?
Carl

I'm probably one of the few non-coloradians here. That was taken here in Northern Cali...close to the Klamath River. beautiful area here...the link below is cool...if ya ever wanna visit/dredge in cali, this whole area cant be beat!!! B)

Sorry about that SLN, I was talking about the pic that sgolsen put up. I swear it looks like the Yellowstone or Clark's Fork of the Yellowstone. Gotta be. One or the other. And if it neither, let's go pan it! :D

:D DIND DING DING :D You got it Carl, "Artist Point" on the Yellowstone. Suppose to be the most painted landscape in the country. When I uploaded that picture I swear it looked just like a post card. Here's another with my wife in it, there's a bench right there and we both sat there for close to 2 hours and never said a word. I have been to a lot of places so far, but this is that's prettiest yet.

Dang the picture didn't post

It looks like it posted to me Garry. :) Great picture!
Spring time in the Rockies is getting the best of me today. It's raining, snowing, and the sun is shining. :o I can't wait till summer!!

Hi Guys thanks for the great pics l'm an Aussie and the more that l see of your great country the more l want to visit !!! Best wishes all ...Picky
