On my recent trip to Colorado, I saw many fields along the way blanketed with sunflowers and other yellow wildflowers.
This is the result of the high amounts of rain we've received during this monsoon season.
The photo above, taken near the Whispering Cedars Fire Station, was typical of what I saw.
