I recently did a post about a ride to Breckenridge, Colorado we took this winter that you can read here. Since I know most people are experiencing winter fatigue, I thought I re-share four photos I took on a trip to Breckenridge last year during the summer--you can read that post here.
Spring comes late to the high country of Colorado, but when it does it brings beautiful wildflowers, strong afternoon thunderstorms, and absolutely gorgeous vistas!
Here are my Note Cards and quotes I thought would go well with them inside:
"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help" ~ Psalm121:1
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."
~Robert Frost
"Just living is not enough..... one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower." ~ Hans Christian Anderson
~ Helen Keller
Thanks, Vee! It was a pleasure to be able to join in your Note Card Party event today! Be sure to visit Vee today to see links to many other participating blogs.
PS: For all who are wondering, I promise to reveal where we were when I took this photo of my husband in Breckenridge on my next blog post!
Sorry for the suspense! :)

Beautiful Colorado. Your pictures are so beautiful.
I like the quote about needing flowers...
My quote "I buy fresh flowers, and if there is any money left, I pay the rent and by groceries"
HaHa...a little extreme...but I do always keep fresh flower in my home and I've never been late on rent or hungry...guess it works for me.
Lovely post.
Your photographs are really stunning and the quotes you've chosen really make your Note Cards surely unique ! Thank you my dear friend, you always make me feel so good when I come and visit you !!
Have a wonderful day my dear Pat <3
Hugs

These are really beautiful mountain scenes in summer, Pat. I love the collage of wildflowers. Thanks for popping by.
O, so pretty...love these for your note cards.
Our son and family are skiing Wolf Creek as we speak. Staying in Pagosa Springs and love the pretty little town...the snow is awesome, he says.
Wonderful note cards, and quotes to match. How well the quote from Frost turned out for your second photo.
Not nice to keep us in suspense. :-)
What beautiful landscapes, Pat! They do indeed make lovely notecards. Interesting mystery photo!
There is something so wondrous about looking at a mountain range. Gorgeous photos.

Beautiful images and wonderful words. How can anyone look at a mountain and not feel in awe of God? Your note card images are beautiful.

Lovely photos and meaningful words to go with them...a very beautiful set of note cards!
You really should print this out and use these quotes. They are spectacular photos....especially the one of your sweet husband! How neat! Have a good week my friend! Hugs!
Those are beautiful. They almost don't look real...and that's a compliment.
Your photos are stunning, Pat, and you selected verses that are perfect for them. Colorado's scenery is spectacular.
Truly breathtaking pics. I think you were wise to go against the grain and avoid winter ones. :-D I'm particularly drawn to the second one, intrigued by where those tracks lead.
Lovely, Pat. Thank you for sharing the beauty of Colorado.
Stunning! And the captions for each are all wonderful. It reminds me of The Sound of Music. (Vinny looks as if he's in an Ice Palace.)
Beautiful note cards! Your photos are so crisp and clear. The scenery is stunning. What a beautiful world we live in!
Dearest Pat;
Oh, what beautifu pictures (or note cards) you took in Breckenridge, Colorado♡♡♡
I love all the matching quotes very much!
Your husband sure look in such cold and dangerous place:-)
ps> Thank you very much for stopping by and sweet comment, I really appreciate it.
Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Oh dear....so much beauty. Our Colorado girl flew home last week to surprise us for a5 day visit. How my heart longs to be with her in Colorado. The wildflowers always make my heart joyful. The wildflower festival in Crested Butte in July is always so stunning...the mountains come alive with color in the back country out there. So much beauty!
Beautiful...each and every ONE of your note card photos. And fitting, perfect, quotes to go with them.
The photos are breathtaking! I'd love to have them as notecards!!
Best,
Bonnie
Stunning! Nothing like the Rocky Mountains for true beauty. I'll take a set!
Wonderful photos of such spectacular scenery. We live in such a beautiful world, don't we? I love them all but especially the wildflower collage. Thanks for sharing your scenic state with us.
Beautiful! Your photos are fantastic, Pat, and I love the quotes you chose to go with them.
Pat, you have captured our state's beauty so very well with your camera. When I view your blog photos I always feel myself breathing more deeply and a feeling of relaxation comes over me.
Beautiful, beautiful scenes of alpine glories. I do love the verse from Psalm 121 and think of it often when we see the mountains in the distance or driving through them in the summer.
Your note card selections are inspiring.
These are great and I love the texts you have chosen with each card!
Hi. I want to invite you to my parties. Although it is not the designated days, I want to invite you to my first ever parties. http://easytocookmeals.com/cunning-ladies-friday-party/ AND http://easytocookmeals.com/thank-you-monday-link-party/
Beautiful cards. The quotes fit perfectly.
It is amazing to compare the photos of Colorado and those from NYC and see they are equally lovely in their own way! There is something beautiful wherever you go in America I think.
I like your note card idea and you have chosen some great photos for the cards. Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such nice comments!
So beautiful...both the pictures and the quotes!
I know where your husband was - but I'm not giving away the secret! Loved seeing your wildflower photos and green vistas around Breckenridge (I can dream, can't I)!
The road less travelled.....just gorgeous!!!
Your Colorado is glorious beyond compare! LOVE this set of notecards, especially the second and third ones. Lovely, Pat!
What beautiful shots.
Beautiful note cards, Pat! Thanks for sharing them.
Have a good weekend. It may not snow here!
Wow.
It was really fun visiting through your notecards!
Such a lovely place.
And such a lovely person you are to find the beauty in everything.
I would be so pleased to have a notecard set with those photos. (But unless I had two sets, I'd never send them away -- I'd frame them.) Thanks for the Colorado memories. Beautiful. Happy Spring!
