Hey, Hay is for horses...and great design.

These are called Plopp- by Hay!

Dream Catcher Therapy Center and Horse Sanctuary in Olathe, Colorado is an inspirational place- to put it mildly- might mildly.

Kathy Hamm and her husband have really built something amazing here. It's beautiful, clean, teeming with lovable animals. there is even a 3 legged dog that will steal your heart.

I don't consider myself an animal person... but I got so choked up being around such a compassionate and loving operation. They have brought animals back from the brink of starvation and neglect and have made it possible for their mentally and physically challenged clients to thrive to make deep connection with the horses and great strides in their healing!

Kathy we salute you!

The beautiful Ranch.

Petting the bunnies.
Giving the pooch a Popsicle.
As you can see they are dressed in their farm clothes!
Free range hens!

A few of my favorite things...

Rosehip

Arnica

It's haying time in Ouray County. Love it- although my Claritin intake has doubled!
Tried out a new camera and soon destroyed it...it had great features but broke like a cheap Mc Donaldland toy.
Scott and I got to take a little hike around Telluride on Sunday- We rarely ever go together just the two of us. He was patient with my arnica shopping and flower and fauna photography, he even patiently endured my rose-hip collecting. Aah Romance! We ended the day at my favorite restaurant, Cosmopolitan.

What could be more inspiring than all the bounties of late summer, flowers and vegetables from our Farmer's market, stunning mountain views, good-old country roads and the love of your family?

As a true modern girl, who loves the rural life I think that hay in a patterned field is amazingly edgy. One of these days, I will take that perfect hay field shot- by gum!
More hiking today- the mushroom class we signed up for had scheduling challenges so today it's hiking, lunch, and christening the new office with my fabulous girlfriends!

Chanpagne at lunch-why not?
