What an up and down weather season it has been the last few months. Every time there is a warm-up, there has been a quick cool-down. After the coldest winter ever here in Buena Vista and the last four seasons averaging below normal, one wonders if there will be summer. But there are indications that nature is on track.
Yesterday started out on a bitter-sweet note. My friend and colleague, who helped raise Central Colorado Regional Airport from a low point to national recognition, left to become the Airport Manager at Hays, KS….good for them…not so much for us. After parting it was time for a hike and some fresh air. Just as I was getting to the top of Midland Hill, there they were…dozens of Pasque flowers. Every season they are the first to pop up in the mountains…a sure sign that all is well!
