A mountain lake close to our place. Our barn and house should fit our new home's environment. |
We traveled all around our corner of the state to get inspiration. I like the weathered look, as with this old mining pipe crossing the highway. |
An old mine processing building in Creede; look at the exposed beams and weathered wood. |
Cool door -- barns can be colorful! |
Crested Butte |
Beautiful sunset on a Colorado barn. |
A stall with a view! We liked that the horses could hang their heads out, but we thought a sliding door would be more useful. |
A great interior. We learned we should have flexible stall sizes and wide aisles for ease of cleaning. |
Barn near Arvada |
This is just pretty ... if the horses get a new home why can't we?! |
Mountain streams and wildflowers in Silverton echo the ranch we left behind in Texas. |
The remains of the original house, burned to the ground a few years ago. It's a good reminder to love the house, but to love the people who make it a home more -- things come and go but family is forever. |
Winter in Colorado and winter in Texas are two different things. |
An elk migration through the back pasture. We're not the first settlers here by a long shot! |
A lot of different critters besides our horses and donkeys will be making the barn their home. |
The border collies are good for keeping an eye on the donkeys just in case that fence fails. |
Our crippled donkey Sparky, one of the reasons we need shelter for them from the winter. |
A ranch dog's work is never done. |
