My World Tuesday - Breckenridge, Frisco, and Tree Buds

I'm sharing several different things for this week's My World Tuesday post. First up are some photographs taken in downtown Breckenridge on a gray day in early April. Rather than show the main street itself I thought I'd show photographs taken looking away from the main street.
Near Breckenridge is the small town of Frisco, and here's a picture of its main street on the same day, with the mountainous backdrop trying to hide in the clouds and fog. I was hoping to get to the town's marina but there was too much snow.
And finally, even around my house at 7,500 feet elevation, spring is finally showing up with the aspen trees budding. This last photo (cropped from a larger shot) was taken on Sunday in the local Fox Run Park.
I hope everyone has a great week, and look forward to reading about other people's worlds on the My World Tuesday home page.

    Very cool shots - my favorite is the second one - showing the detail of the old timber of the building. Very impressive!

    I really love all your shots today, Al! I love the old building and the wagon -- terrific monochrome shots! And Frisco against the mountain, marvelous. And yes, hope for spring! May you have sunshine and beautiful, warm days this week! Enjoy!
