Fort Collins to Horsetooth Reservoir – Colorado
I was cleaning up the pictures folder when I stumbled upon these photos. Hmm, it’s been two full years since I clicked these pics on the way to the Horsetooth Reservoir from Fort Collins, Colorado.

The Rocky road ahead – Themed pic of the day

Though it was in vogue only for a short time, it became the forerunner of express delivery mail technologies, and the logo is still in use by the United States Postal Service.
