Guest at The Olds Ranch

Dan's game camera captured this Buck at The Ranch.  He had flushed him out earlier this weekend, but he returned.  We think he beds down on The Ranch every night.  If he is smart he will stay on our Ranch where he will be safe this hunting season.  We would like for him to get bigger!! 

2nd Annual Olds Ranch Fall Festival

We have purposely delayed our fall event thinking we might get some rain and then the burn ban would be lifted.  However, not to be....  we are still in the grips of a bad drought.

But the 2nd Annual Olds Ranch Fall Festival will happen.
Tracy will cook in the kitchen and we will gather under the porch and have some country fun.

Please join us for a cactus spray paint hunt and lots of good food and fellowship.

Saturday, November 12th  from 11:00-4:00p.

Bring a non-perishable food item for the local food pantry  ....See you then!!

We own a piece of Steamboat!

Dan and I researched and debated and finally decided with the current market it was time to purchase a condo in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. This is our favorite Colorado town because the people that live here are just so friendly AND it has the best skiing in Colorado. Our family has been going to Steamboat for over 25 years - our girls learned to ski here. When we do decide to go to another resort, we have that moment of why did we do this... we should be skiing The Boat! So we bought a fixer upper at The Rockies. It had been partially remodeled and needed alot of work to make it our mountain home. Here are the pictures of our almost completed remodel.   The bathrooms are not quite finished yet, those pictures will be added later.  It is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit with an air dream sleeper sofa in the living room.  It sleeps six very comfortably - all are queen sized beds.  We knocked out walls in the bathrooms to make them bigger and also added a combo washer/dryer in the unit.  We do have it in the rental pool with Mountain Resorts and can be requested as your preferred rental at the time of the reservation.  The Rockies is an older complex but the pool and two large hot tubs were redone a few years ago - both are heated year round.  Needless to say we will be there skiing this year - some days in February and in March.  We are also planning on going this summer for some fishing and river tubing!  The market is still very favorable to buyers and I have the best buyer's agent in town and also have made lots of contacts for remodeling and repairs if anyone else is interested....
