Just past the
Colorado state line, where no one was available to greet us, we looked over the hill and into a valley and spied this old cabin. Had we reached a welcome center after all?
Apparently not. No one was home. It's just a cowboy line cabin. Maybe it's still used once in a while. The pipe sticking up through the roof indicates there's a cozy pot-bellied stove within. Accommodations might be pretty good.
Daisy liked the pond out front. She took a few moments to cool off
and pond(er) the meaning of life through her reflection.
Peaceful and quiet. A good place to go to escape for a few days. No TV, no phone, no Internet, no running water, no toilet. Really roughing it.
ReplyDeleteI might have to try Daisy's technique the next time life hands me questions I can't answer. But that line cabin does look like a great place to stay and do some quiet meditation.
ReplyDeleteOh WOW-----I'd love to have a little cabin somewhere like that ---just to get away from the rat-race on occasion... Of course, being out there where you all are, you don't EVER have to worry about a rat-race!!!!! Gosh--I'm so envious.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures..
Hugs,

Daisy can be counted on to find water, that's for sure. :) No one welcomed you? Apparently it didn't bother Daisy!
ReplyDeleteThis welcome center would have to be staffed by volunteers. Sweet! If I needed a place to live. Would learn to love the swimmin' hole as much as Daisy.
ReplyDeleteThat's a bit of a watershed moment, finding both water and crossing the state line. (Not to mention, there's gold in them hills ... somewhere!)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful spot. I love it. And wonder if Daisy found the answer to that question. If so... I need to talk to her. :)
ReplyDeletewho's the fairest of them all...Daisy of course...
ReplyDeleteWay back when we lived in Price, UT in the 60's and Dad worked for the Forest Service we load up, go to the mountains and stay in cabins that he called "Guard Stations." We always had a great time.
ReplyDeleteThe place looks well maintained.
ReplyDeleteThe Forest Service has quite a few cabins (former guard stations) here, they rent out them out.
aww, did daisy learn anything?
ReplyDeleteWhat a quaint little place!! That Daisy...she has a one-track mind. ;)
