The view from the halfway point. This is Lake Arbor in Arvada, CO. This squirrel and Rufus were having a stare down. Water fountains Rufus spooked some more birds: ducks and seagulls Self The Crow Oh crap! He sees me! This flower barely made it through the snowfall. The creek Some of the doggies we see on our walks. This rottie is very friendly and likes to watch us pass. This guy is a barker and his only view is from where his wooden fence meets the nei...
