Browns Park another place the big name outlaws hung out. It was a good week end and let's be perfectly clear about a couple things. Our public servants in the parks and where ever they work are the
just the best and that was proven again this weekend. The other is that I understand just how lucky I am to be able to do things like this.
A fantastic conversation with a young man who worked here at the
Gates of Ladore. I learned where there are several other panels of art. That will be for a later time.
I also learned in this conversation this guy is a photographer too and a real good one. So good that he sells them
here. Don't cost a penny to go look at these incredible pictures. WOW! The other thing is he also uses Pentax cameras like myself. Thank you Dave for the fun time!
Then anther great talk with Bob here at the
Jarvie Ranch. The site was pretty cool and there will be something on that later. What I was reminded of here was something I learned down on Cedar Mesa that it's possible to work as a volunteer at BLM properties and other properties as well and get paid a small stipend. Small would be a lot to me and I can see me doing this. I could have done just that starting tomorrow right there. Thanks for that Bob!
The last talk was with the nice lady who with her husband ran this store for many years in Browns Park. Aptly named
Browns Park Store they recently closed it because the 30K figure for bringing the fuels tanks up to code was too much for their age. They will get rid of what inventory is left when hunting season starts. There will be many who will miss this not just you could get things here but also because of associations made over the many years.
What I learned here was several things. This women moved from Steamboat Springs to here in 1959. We had mutual friends and or knew several of the same people which happens a lot it seems. Our last names shared the first three somewhat unusual combination of letters. I did not but this lady brought up how very important social security is to her and her husband. Hasn't she got that right.
This may not be much but I get a huge kick outta stuff like this and to all of you I hope we get to meet and chat again.
Remember about clicking on the pictures to hugen them up.
I thought incorrectly that there would be a few people out here. There was no one for the most part. It was like it all belonged to me and you know what it does and you too!
