Sunday Leofwyna went out to get the cellphone replaced and pick up some groceries.  I sorted my purchases, cleaned up the kitchen and fixed the folding door in the hallway.  We fixed mac and cheese and apple crisp (again) for supper and I quilted some more while we found more 9-11 programs to watch.

Monday we went back to Rocky Mountain National Park to see if we could catch sight of some of the color change and the elk.  We were in luck.  The color change is just beginning but there were some good patches of yellow and gold showing on various mountainsides.  We saw several harems of lady elk with some rather impressive males.  We also saw a young single spike elk who looked like he belonged on an African plain with some impala or something.  We also saw a couple large clutches of magpies and were close enough to see the rich blue and green sheen on their feathers.  The weather is supposed to change on us this week and we encountered some of the beginning of that driving through a bit of rain during the drive out to Bear Lake.  It cleared off in time for us to take the walk up to the lake although I declined taking the walk around it.
