Our Home
n
our Christmas 1998 trip to Colorado, we found a new log-sided home in the
south central part of the state. The house is nestled in the pines near
a small mining town that was active over 100 years ago. We often enjoy
walking through the old cemetery looking at the headstones from the 1800s
mixed in with the modern ones. It's not uncommon to see the mule deer
there, too, all of which makes for a peaceful experience.
Some of these photos following are rather large, so be patient!

The view of the Sangre De Cristo Mountains above is from a road near
our home. 30" x 7.5" prints available for $50.

We built an extension to our driveway in July 2006 that connects with
the side street to simplify maneuvering the travel trailer.
Our good friend and neighbor, Billy Wells, used his tractor to "blade"
the road base and gravel to make our new driveway.
