Boulder Art Fest: Outdoor Art Museum Masterpieces!
I admit I am overwhelmed. Overwhelmed by the level of talent that visits our Boulder Mall to hang their masterpieces for our enjoyment and hopeful purchase. IMO (in my opinion) some of the art was without question of museum quality, the artists achieving true artistic professional status. Many are in fact professional full and part-time artists. I was overwhelmed and remain tongue-tied. As a recovering lawyer, that does not happen much. Over the next couple of days I’m going to focus on one artist per blog.

What’s Blooming Along Golden’s Trails (and Sidewalks)? Morning Glories!
There are some pretty, white flowers blooming along Golden’s trails right now … and along Golden’s sidewalks … and in Golden’s lawns. It is “Field Bindweed” — Convolvulus arvensis L. — a ubiquitous weed in the Morning Glory family that Linnaeus (1753) said was found in European fields. Spreading rapidly with European culture, by 1794 it was reported in New York, and it was in Colorado when our first Flora (book of plants) was published in 1874. Today, it is found nearly world-wide, except in the very far north, such as Greenland.
