Warhol In Colorado

On the campus of Colorado State University the annual flower garden was full of summer color. Rather than the usual scenic shots of flowers, I opted for a different view point. Perhaps an insect might see the flowers this way.

A visit to the museum would have been appropriate, but it was another half hour to the opening at 11:00. So Rich and I passed and headed off to Old Town Fort Collins for a raw fish lunch -- sushi and sashimi.
