In early spring, while driving on US 36 between Lyons and Boulder, I was confronted with the most magical and serene view that stuck with me for days.  That drive is always beautiful with the rolling foothills and the famous Boulder Mountains on display for all the cyclists, drivers and passengers to enjoy. That day the leaves on the trees were newly blossomed and everything was covered in an afternoon haze. The mountains and the sky almost became one as they created a peaceful backdrop for this lovely scene. It seemed kinda cloudy yet the sun was shining brightly underneath the thin layer of clouds. Right away my mind began to race as this mosaic began to come to life in mind.
