Welcome to our little corner of the Internet. Kick your feet up and stay a while.
Several years ago my family and I were coming back to Montrose from delivering some paintings to a gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Along toward evening we stopped in Pinedale, Wyoming to fix some supper. We pulled our rig, pick up and camper trailer, into the town park and found a spot where we would be out of the way. Kathy …
Word has gotten out and that’s typical for a small town like Montrose. Mother passed away a week ago. Many of you have called to express condolences. Thank you. I appreciate it. I’d like to thank the great staff, nurses and doctors at Montrose Memorial Hospital and staff and nurses at Hope West (Hospice) that helped us get through this …
Staying at the Coyote Inn in Limon, Colorado isn’t what we had in mind for tonight but it’ll be fine. After all it is under new ownership. So far it ranks right down there with the room I got at Baker, California one night at the Wills Fargo Motel. If you’ve ever been to Baker you’ll recognize the name. The …
As you know, I’ve been planning my “Return to the North Country” ride for several months now. This is a follow up to the “Long Ride North” that I did last summer when I rode the Harley to Alaska. I’m scheduled to take off on July 11th, which is coming right up. The whole point of the ride is to …
My how time flies. It was one year ago today that we left on The Long Ride North. Hard to believe. That was a spectacular ride. 8,279.8 miles and 28 days. You can read all about in the categories list to the right. Just click on The Long Ride North and all of the related posts will come up. I …
Guess I should have paid closer attention to the weather forecast last weekend. It would’ve been worth actually looking at it I suppose. I recall something about a chance of rain but I interpreted it as to say a chance of scattered showers, or something to that effect. As it turned out it was a rather unexpected weather event. I …
I guess I knew it had to happen sooner or later. I’m just as glad it’ll be sooner. I’ll be returning to The North Country this summer. They say that once you’ve been to The North Country you never really leave. I have found that to be true. This is one of the posts you probably missed because of the …
I believe we have the problem solved with the email notifications failing to go out. I didn’t realize you good folks were not getting them and therefore wondering if I still existed or not. Ha! I thought things were awefully quiet out there in cyberland. Usually when i make a post I get some comments or feedback of some kind. It …
It’s come to my attention that you good folks haven’t been getting my posts. we are addressing the issue so please stand by…this is just a test.
In the eighteen hundreds, Dr. Sylvester Richardson and his bride settled in an area near Moab, Utah. This homestead flat is called the Richardson Amphitheater and it’s where I spent last weekend painting the Utah red rock landscape and enjoying life. To get there, go west on I-70 and take the Cisco exit to Moab, Hwy 128, and follow along the …
