Leanin' Tree Museum in Boulder, Colorado

Mom and I are in Boulder, Colorado, this week to visit her sister, Adeline, and my cousin, Marilyn and her husband, Paul.  We visited the Leanin' Tree Museum this morning.  You may be familiar with Leanin' Tree greeting cards.  The Leanin' Tree Museum here in Boulder has a superb collection of Western art.  Outdoors you can take photos of 15 or so beautiful bronze sculptures.  Inside no photos are allowed, but the Old West paintings and bronze sculptures are the best I've ever seen.  Here are a few of the outdoor photos I took today.

Mom took a shine to this cowboy.





That cougar is not as close as it appears.




The only safe cougar is a bronze cougar.




Love the contrast of faces to fabric.




The details are stunning.




Sit and enjoy the bronze sculpture garden.
