We're Selling Our Log "Cabin" in Colorado -- Want to Buy It? Or You Can Just Look.

It's Time to Move On . . .
We've Got Our House Listed. No Backing Out Now.
OOOH . . . I'm Gonna Miss The GREAT Summer-time Weather!
(It gets hot in south Texas!) 

We've enjoyed our time in Colorado. But as a true-blue Texan, I gotta go back home. But, I will return for visits! It's a beautiful state that is undeniably irresistible. 

At first, I wondered should I post or should I not? Well, I figured it's a place that certainly epitomizes "love where you live" -- at least for me -- so, yeah, sure, why not. Plus, I'm feeling a little sentimental and nostalgic, as I'm here packing up some personal items. We've enjoyed so many moments in this magical place. I think about the elk crowded up in a small herd, in our front yard one winter. And sitting out on our front porch, with camera in hand -- poised and ready to capture the most stirring and colorfully intense sun rises I've ever witnessed. And, let's not forget the alluring sounds of melted snow flowing down a nearby creek. Maybe, though, I think . . . it's time for someone else to live here, to enjoy what we've deemed as our good fortune. 

So, now, for some snapshots of our house, our home . . . Of the views we've enjoyed and will certainly miss. They're all below. I'm sharing my favorite places at home, plus some of the lovely-lovely scenery -- mostly enjoyed from our porch. The first -- of the aspens, however, is not a far distance from our place. 
You may have seen some before. But, there may be some you haven't.
Here you go:







I've given some photo stills to the realtor. They're pictures I've taken over the course of time. They turned them into a nice slideshow. If you'd like to view it, please go here

Undoubtedly, I will post more of the house and of the state.  I probably won't be able to resist . . . . Now, it's back to packing.
Someone from Boulder -- a fellow Texan, as a matter-of-fact -- is renting our house while it's on the market. They're very excited about it, and so am I!

Susan,
All the sudden people are moving around and now you too! If I was Linda I'd hop right on a plane and call first dibs! Your home is a gorgeous retreat. Just beautiful!
In general, imagine how neat it would be to have a bloggy friend buy your house!
I'm ready to downsize into something small and charming...on the beach...in SoCal!
Happy packing!
