They say it's your Birthday!

Eight Bar Ranch IV

The last in the series: this is the view from the outhouse, I'm not kidding- very relaxing!

Eight Bar Ranch III

The Calving Shed, perched on the rim of the Colorado River below the Flattops. Perfect mornings eating breakfast on that front porch, watching our new little critter "Ringo" eat dead, dried up chipmunks then try to run away with his booty when it grossed us out too much.

Eight Bar Ranch II

An old friend, put out to pasture after years of working. Out there with the coyotes and bears, slowly becoming part of the landscape.

Eight Bar Ranch

Scenes from a glorious autumn weekend at the Eight Bar Ranch: Scene One- Ringo and Grace get squeezed in the Aspens.

RING-OH!

Grace's favorite Beatle, Ringo wore this VERY ring in the film "Help." She was very happy that we were the winning bid in a Sotheby's auction for this famous artifact. So happy, in fact, that we named our new Border Collie puppy after that famous Mr. Starkey.

New Addition

Elizabeth climbs a hill with Ringo, the newest addition to our pack, on the edge of the Flattops Wilderness, western Colorado.

Workin' for Us Boulder Folks

Under siege by wildfire, these guys are so damned brave. Grace takes a second to give her thanks, so did I- thanks again fellas!

Slow Burn

Still burning up there.

Not What You'd Like to Wake Up To

Wildfire just west of us in Four Mile Canyon. Aggressive fire, very dry conditions, rugged terrain- recipe for disaster. Homes lost, forest burnt; thanks to the firefighters helping us all, keep the faith.

One Year

Dedicated to my Dolly.
