I use this as my first picture/post. Mainly because it reminds me of my brother and his wife (my new sister!!) whom I both love very much! She is the one who gave me the advice & confidence to do this. And my brother is someone that I admire very much for his, well just way of living. This was taken on my first trip to visit them in Denver in 2009. My brother had taken me up to show me where they were going to be getting married and, as usual, I took tons of pictures! There has always been something so relaxing about this picture. I love the way the rocks are set up and balanced with the water flowing thru. Besides cars driving across the small 'bridge', I think I could've stayed there all day just watching the water pass. I think this was the moment, while also surrounded by mountains, that I realized why my brother wanted to live here.
