Had a visit with Allen to the National Center for Atmospheric Research. The building, designed by the famed architect I.M. Pei (the same architect who designed the John Kennedy Library and the famous pyramid at the Louvre museum in Paris), sits atop Table Mesa just southwest of Boulder, Colorado.
In front of the building, the sidewalk was built around a pine tree. Sadly, the pine tree is dead, but an artist has used the stump to create a nice wooden statue.
The view of boulder is nice from the top of Table Mesa.
The mesa also offers a nice view of the flatirons.
The center has a series of nature trails through the beautiful meadows and open woods surrounding the mesa.
Nice prickly-pears were blooming along the nature path.
