Around Sand Creek Park: “A Boot Marks the Spot”

But what does is mark? A property line? An old cowboy's grave?

The House is For Sale

Posted by: Rick

The house was actually listed for sale on 1 April. But, we got our sign today.

Anyone interested?

The house is in great shape. Over the past few years we've remodeled and updated the kitchen, our master suite, and all the bathrooms. It has a new airconditioner and heater. A new roof thanks to Sandy. The carpet is in great shape and was recently cleaned. And, we've been busy "decluttering", boxing up stuff to keep, carting away or giving away other stuff. We are ready to show the house!

In a way, it is a bit sad. We've been here for over 9 years, now. And, enjoyed it much. But, it is time for the next chapter.

When we get a solid contract on the house, I'll give a date to my company. And, we'll kick off a hectic process of getting moved.

Around Sand Creek Park: “Final Resting Place”

Posted by: Lynne

This old tree at the top of our property has given up. But what a view it chose for it's final resting place! In the far distance you can see the snow capped peaks of the Snowy Mountains in Wyoming. Bull Mountain is iin the foreground.

Sand Creek Photo Fest!

Posted by: Lynne

This past week I started posting a photo every day on Facebook of photos I have taken around Sand Creek, the area surrounding our cabin. I am going to start doing the same here so they will be enjoyed by people not on Facebook with me. I am calling the series: "Around Sand Creek Park." So, here we go!

"SUNRISE, SUNSET"

Photos taken out the back door of our cabin. They have not been "touched up."
