This week has been so beautiful with cool mornings and sunny afternoons. The Cameron Peak fire began on August 13 and since then, Northern Colorado air has been unrecognizable.
I had kind of forgotten just how beautiful it is here, but with the fire recently reaching 92 percent containment, I'm glad to see Colorado beginning to shine again.
