Had to travel the eastern plains of Colorado yesterday. On my way home this storm was rolling in, and I had to get the shot.

Bishop Castle, Colorado 🏰
One of those places you really have to see in person to appreciate. Built by one man, Jim Bishop, stone by stone over decades, this place is unlike anything else you'll find in Colorado.
Between the stone towers, crazy staircases, ironwork and that dragon hanging over the building, there's something interesting everywhere you look. I caught this shot looking up toward the dragon with the Colorado sky behind it, and it's still one of my favorites.
If you've never been to Bishop Castle, it's definitely worth the drive—and don't forget to look up. 📸

A Piece of Colorado Railroad History — Rio Grande No. 499
I took this photo of Rio Grande No. 499 back in the winter of 2017 here in Cañon City. At the time, I just thought it made for a great picture. But the story behind this old locomotive makes the photo even better.
No. 499’s history goes all the way back to 1902, when Baldwin Locomotive Works built the locomotive that would eventually become 499. In 1930, the Rio Grande rebuilt it into the massive K-37 narrow-gauge steam locomotive you see here.
These locomotives worked the mountain rails of Colorado and New Mexico, hauling trains through some pretty unforgiving country. No. 499 could even be used on passenger trains like the San Juan Express and Shavano.
After decades of service, 499 was retired in 1970. Years later, it eventually made its way to Cañon City, where it has been preserved as a reminder of Colorado's narrow-gauge railroad history.
So when I look at this picture now, I see more than an old steam engine sitting in the snow. I see a machine whose story reaches back more than 120 years—one that survived the steam era and is still here for us to appreciate today.
I'm glad I happened to have my camera with me that snowy day.
