Council at Rocky Mountain N.P.
One of my favorite things about living in Colorado is the non-stop sporadic weather during the summer months. It will go from a 75 degree sunny beautiful day to extremely threatening or a down pour and then back to clear again in less than an hour. It is incredible. The threatening weather was on its way out in this photo.

Council & Me
I moved to Colorado from Texas in April of 2000. The first summer I lived in Denver my buddy Council came up to visit. We decided to take a trip up to Rocky Mountain National Park and do some hiking. The day we arrived a thunderstorm rolled in. We decided to do a relatively short hike since the weather was threatening. The lighting could not have been any cooler for this picture that I snapped right after a rain storm had just let up and the clouds were beginning to roll out.
