"Colorado canyon girl could set me free
Brown eyes in the mornin' lookin' back at me
And just for that one moment... you're all that I see
Searchin' for some other place to be"

(From: "Boulder Skies" -- Pure Prairie League)

I love my native Missouri, but nothing reinvigorates my spirit like a trip to Central Colorado. It had been six years since my last trip out here, and on that trip I never really got to let my "girl" out, the real girl anyway.

Like many of my girlfriends, I've always enjoyed the more glamorous side of things. And I'll always enjoy primping and posing in sexy dresses and shiny high heels.
But as the years fly by, I find more and more the need to REALLY BE me.

I suppose I've been tinkering with this gal "Kellie" for the better part of twenty years, on one level or another. It's been an interesting evolution to be sure.
Much more interesting in the last ten years since I've accepted the realities, gotten out and gained confidence, and embraced who I am.

I first heard the lyrics to the song above about twenty years ago as well. The song relates more to a lovesick man, but that one verse above has always struck a chord with my feminine soul.

This is in the Crystal River valley of the Elk Mountains, nowhere near Boulder, closer to Aspen I suppose. But that verse speaks to my soul and always will.

"And just for that one moment... you're all that I see"

"He was born in the Summer of his twenty-seventh year,
Comin' home to a place he'd never been before"

I was almost thirty five the first time I ventured to the Colorado Rockies, and I had heard this song probably hundreds of times by then. Driving across Kansas you could see Pikes Peak for almost a hundred miles out on the desolate plains. The climb up from the plains to the Continental Divide was simply awesome. It still is every time I get out there.

Those first two lines took on a whole new meaning.

Enjoying a relaxing glass of wine on the last night of my recent trip, at the lodge in Redstone Colorado. This place was absolutely lovely, so well appointed, just a perfect alpine escape.
The next day it was back to reality, a fourteen hour trip across the dreaded moonscape of Kansas. That trip would make quite a ski run. From Independence Pass east of Aspen to Kansas City the vertical drop was over 11,000 feet.
