Some thing I like to share with you. It was the year of 2004 on September 11th and Ron & Kathy took a trip up to Dillon & Frisco, Colorado for our 11th year anniversary of being married. Most of the time we went to Grand Lake or Granby, Colorado. As we traveled over Trail Ridge Road in the high country, but this year was different and more fun. We toured all around the area of Dillon, but at this time we didn’t have a camper on the truck until April of 2005.
We have driven all over Dillon and Frisco, Colorado for 3 days, and ran across many exciting places plus a camp site that we had loves to return to some day and camp out in our tents and sleeping bags and now with the pop-up truck camper.. I tried to look it up the camp site near Frisco, Colorado this year on the Internet with no luck. It was set up for all kinds of camping, RV’s, trailers, pick-up campers with running water, electricity, etc. But, we were not set up for that kind of camping, just staying in a motel instead for the days we were in the mountains. We had run across the most beautiful wild flowers in the lot next to the parking area by the clean old cabin motel. I had taken some pictures and Kathy had collected some seed from the white and yellow center daisies that were seeding at that time of year.
We had taken the seeds home that fall, and Kathy planted them in the yard, next to the driveway in the corner in front. We never through that they would grow, until we seen them coming up the next spring of 2005. Wow, they came up like crazy that spring and keep on blooming all summer long into the fall and the first snow fall. Here this wild daisy seeds came from the high country mountains and we didn’t think they would survive the lower altitude in Deer Trail, Colorado. Now were sharing the seeds with family and friends in Colorado and out of state into Texas. We think we started some thing in Deer Trail, because the seed for the last 6 years have spread all over Deer Trail, and still spreading and maybe some people might get mad and other might love it as it is gong two blocks each directions. And Sandi Koepke back yard is full of them without planting them. Ron Schaffer
