My wife, Randi, and I were caretakers at Big Sky Lake for 5 years. We moved there after Randi had a mastectomy because we needed a break from reality. We lived in a cabin on the lake, a peaceful place to restore our souls. Boat rounds and walking the lakeshore each day in the summer were our tasks. Skiing around the lake in the winter wasn't too painful either. It was a good gig and we made some lasting friendships.

Randi and Juan,
I couldn't find a phone number for you (especially Randi). Since this message is not secure, that's all I'll say for now! I would love to hear from you. I tried to provide my email but the system does not recognize my domain (it works where I live, but I guess Montana does not). My phone number is 603-304-9004. Please call!

Breath-taking photography of a stunning landscape. Quintessential Big Sky Montana - my, oh my. Congratulations not only on your tour-de-force photos but of the sweet deal you and Randi have worked yourselves into on this gem lake. Somehow for you, Randi, it must be a dream come true. True mountains, true west.

your astonished and deeply impressed friend,

Colleen

The early frost and snow took the bright colors of fall away this year. I don't mind being stuck with earth tones...The Larches have yet to really turn here at the lake...I wonder what effect the early frost will have on them...Thanks for looking...juan
