Since the start of the pandemic, disposable masks have quickly become another unsightly and commonly littered item. Throwing disposable masks in trash cans or purchasing reusable masks can help decrease litter and keep our environment beautiful and healthy!

⚠️Today is NOT your typical Colorado weather day! Lots of hazards due to the high winds - it's a good day to stay indoors if possible and avoid travel.

Please take a minute or two to review these high wind highlights & safety precautions! #COwx

@cherylnapoli Hi and thanks for your question! That is absolutely not a dumb question. When I first saw it, it took me a second to figure out what I was looking at. It’s a Silver Fox. Have a great day!

If you respect wildlife by staying on trail while keeping your dog leashed, you’ll be surprised by what you might see. You can respect wildlife by not feeding them and by keeping your distance (I had my camera on zoom from a distance). #KeepWildlifeWild

Change you clocks & change your batteries. Daylight saving time ends Sunday. When you move your clock back 1 hour, check your smoke & CO alarms. Hit the test button & look at the manufacturer's date on the alarm to make sure it is less than 10 years old.
