What a difference a year made. I was able to hike a little bit at the top of Independence Pass and not suffer from altitude sickness at all. I was a little dizzy but I didn't need support to walk. It was good to see that things could get better after years of struggle. I was making good choices.

... @zlemon not sure the tag I put in my description is right, so this is just in case it's not.

This is for Lynn Grieveson's Featured Product Challenge for August, but also to carry on the Use it All challenge that @zlemon and I started in July. I used everything in Lynn Grieveson's Featured August Collection, "No Big Deal, " but skipped a couple of color variations & solid papers because...

Thanks! I had heard 25 years ago that the females had a white-r tail, but search engine says maybe no. Sorry I didn't think to check. This is the first white tail I've seen here, all these years after "learning" about how to tell them apart, so I got kind of excited. Now to unlearn. :D

When I first saw the girl bunny laying so flat and motionless, I was startled and she heard me and perked up. I was so worried that some predator had stopped by because yes, they do. She was fine, and when I had a chance I got a photo of her. The white tail tells me she's a girl.

Gorgeous portrait treatment! I love how you brought out her eyes. I agree, stunning. ;)

So beautiful and a great design. Love your use of color, and the very best use of that round slide thing I think I've seen, maybe ever. :cool:

Those shutters are just wild! Looks like a visual feast and probably a lot of great photos to take back. If you're like me, you took way more than fit the page, just to be sure they all played well together. :D

Ah Ha! I thought I had listed my supplies but so brain dead after every trip. The bg is several of Anna's Wanderlust papers. At least now I fixed the list. :rolleyes:

Love your green elements and the dragonflies. To learn more, I typed "Mégalithes of Limousin" into the search engine, and this very page came up as the first image. :D Congratulations! You've made the big time!

Beautiful page and it brought up a memory for me when I got to ride in Uncle Bill's wrecker with a grille like that one. I was maybe eight years old. At that age that truck was just huge!

She's a very beautiful woman, and Palvinka's flowers work beautifully on your heritage page. ;)

Love the contrast of light butterflies and heavy metal equipment.

Wonderful! I'm not going to think summer's over until the snow is the next day, and if it's on Trail Ridge Road I'm going to say that doesn't count. We may be barefoot until Thanksgiving. But the other night when I didn't hear the cricket sounds I knew it was because of the weather and they knew...

So glad you translated, thanks! I read and thought I understood, then when I saw I had it right, yes! Love your earthy colors and use of B&W, and Vitalis seems to be very resilient.

Love the flower silhouettes in all the colors to go with the portraits. So pretty!

Love your story and the shaped frames make it a fun page. And love the selfie of the two of you most of all. Stared at that thing until I figured out it's ice cream. We haven't had any since Yellowstone a few years back now, but that's a lot! ;)

Beautiful photo treatment. Wonderful page, and you're right time stands still. I love the old cars and am glad they keep them.
