Campsite #10. I hadn’t done the scenic drive to Telluride in 7 years, since my first year living in Colorado, and being on that stretch of road again reignited in me an appreciation for this state that had recently been waning. This campsite was not our initial destination, but as we pulled in, the full moon greeted us for only a moment and took my breath away before I could capture it in a photograph. It rained and rained, but each and every morning the aspens filtered the sun’s rays into something poetic, and the columbine heads stood up straight, their tiny mouths whispering to me: “there’s so much to love here.”
