It was great to vacation in our home state this year and admittedly we were blown away with some of the beauty that we rediscovered. This is in Buena Vista, Colorado.
I reckon I’ll meet you and we’ll ride up to moocher’s creek and get old Mitchell Moocher to ride with us up to Benson’s bend where we’ll collect Billy Benson and his horse Gassy. Then the lot of us can ride to Tad Johnson’s pepper tree (we’ll keep Gassy at the rear). At this point we’ll all be exhausted from the ride so we’ll find some shade under that pepper tree and eat us some beans and hard tack. Gassy will get a kick out of that.
Way too long. I, on the other hand, passed thru the Northwestern tip of Oklahoma last winter. It was a moving experience for me in the sense that my wheels were moving at the time.
Come visit. I’ll make you iced tea.
We know exactly where that is. We spend time waaaay up Chalk Creek every year just after the monsoon starts (except for this year, so thank you for the foto.
Dear Mike, I think someone is misusing this beautiful photo of yours, and presenting it as his own, as you can see following this link https://www.flickr.com/photos/126098414@N04/18145229635/in/dateposted/
I am a photographer myself, and wouldn’t want anyone to do this with my work.
Kind regards

Rita, I am curious how you came to see that this guy hijacked this photo and how you knew it was mine. I have contacted him thru his Facebook and was very direct.
WOW! =)

Colorado is beautiful. 40 years ago we (Judy and I) used to backpack those mountains. Now a 4 wheel drive car works better. Good morning George.

Good morning! I’m up mighty early for me! But, I got a view that made me feel like riding my old horse right up some lonesome trail in Colorado. 🙂
