Colorado Canyon Girl - a photo on Flickriver

            "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"
