Bittersweet Park is a beautiful urban oasis I came across in Greeley, Colorado. I spent much of the morning there and was treated to some wonderful landscapes.

Shoe Trees
While Missourians have the Burr Oak Tree, the people of Greeley, Colorado have the Shoe Trees. While driving down a highway southwest of Greeley, I went past these trees with shoes hanging from the branches and nailed to the trunks. After doing a double take, I turned around and went back. Having avoided getting hit by traffic, I was able to get these photos.
The southernmost shoe tree.
A closer view of the southern tree. In both this and the above photo, note that there are also shoes dangling from the branches.
A good look at the shoes nailed to the trunks.
