Good Music For A Good Cause


This evening, we attended a benefit concert at the Western Colorado
Botanical Gardens
' Elizabeth B. Harris Amphitheatre. The concert was
being held to support the Dream Catcher Therapy Center and End of
the Trail Horse Rescue and Sanctuary
.

The mission of Dream Catcher Therapy Center is to foster an environment
to effectively rescue and rehabilitate horses and empower people with
physical and mental health challenges through interaction with horses
in a unique, clinical setting.



Three separate bands played, but I especially enjoyed the Native American
Flute playing between each set.


Lynn donated two knitted caps for the silent auction.


Adjacent to the amphitheatre is the Colorado Riverfront Trail. During a lull
in the music, I took a short walk down the trail to do some exploring. It really
is very pretty and it's the perfect place to take a walk, ride a bike or just watch
the Colorado River flow by.


The Colorado River is still running pretty high. The large amount of snow melt
from the mountains and the recent rainfall we've had have definitely filled its
banks.

We had a fun time at the concert, visiting with friends and enjoying the music...
all for a good cause!
