Today when I was taking photos at work, the weather didn't cooperate at first. It was overcast, and very windy. The clouds were so dark that when I went to take more pictures of the orange hawkweed blooming around Miner's Castle, they were all closed up! The wind was making a lot of waves on the lake. When I went out again later, the flowers had opened up again, so I got before-and-after photos!

There's a large bank of raspberries growing right near the visitor center! I am watching them carefully,
because I suspect once they ripen they will not last long at all, and I want at least a taste! It's funny, but
I never even noticed them blooming...

A choppy day out on the lake!

The waves have carved out little caves at the water's edge, over time - every time a
wave goes in it gets spurted back out. That's what all the white along the shore is. 

Here's a video of the spurting!

I happened to take a picture of the same flower, closed and then open to the sun!
