  Vail Valley Daily Photo: Last Man Standing In Nature as in life, there are always examples of the results of not giving up, even in the face of being surrounded by  capitualion.  I found a great example of this while taking an early morning walk on the bike path between the end of the Vail Golf Course and the East Vail open space.  In this heavy aspen hillside forest there was nary a leaf to be seen - except on this single, otherwise unremarkable tree.  Why or how it hung out in the face of overwhelming suggestion, I have no clue.                                                                                                                       PHOTO: NILSSON IMAGES

I pulled my car over to the side of the road to admire.  Heavy overcast that left a little more snow on the peaks earlier was filtering enough light to make the aspen covered hillside litterally glow in an almost surreal manner.  I knew this scene would be fleeting.  While I was absent in the low country the wind came up and, on my way back by this site on the way home yesterday evening, I noticed the color was gone - replaced by bare Aspen sentinals.                   ...

  VAIL VALLEY DAILY PHOTO: NICE DAY FOR GOLF With the summer winding down and fall off-season approaching quickly, it's nice to take a little time to enjoy what this wonderful valley has to offer.  The weather has been absolutely terrific and the fall colors have been spectacular!  Incidently, it's time to get your Epic Pass (www.Snow.com) and, if you are amoung the lucky owners in the Vail Valley, time to think about turning on your heat!  No predictions yet about the coming ski season but the Skunk Cabbage is reasonably high!

. Vail Colorado Daily Photo - Nice Turns! Did you ever notice that there are times in life when looking backward is as satifying as looking forward?  Some nice linked turns in new powder creates one of those opportunities.  What great skiing we are having this week! There are lots of folks in town and real estate activity is "spirited".  Warm temperatures and blue sky are the icing on the cake.   Photo: Nilsson Images
