By Patia, on August 12, 2010, at 9:40 pm

Yeah, this isn’t a bison. But it’s one of my better photos from a recent day trip to the National Bison Range.

 

 

I’ve been to the bison range a couple times, but I recently drove the upper loop for the first time in about 25 years. . . . → Read More: National Bison Range

Living It Up At The Hotel Meade

By Patia, on April 27, 2010, at 10:51 pm

I recently made a return visit to Bannack, Montana’s first territorial capital. I’d been wanting to go back since my first trip circa 1999. It’s a marvelous place and the finest ghost town I’ve ever visited. Both times I arrived after hours and nearly had the whole place to myself.

By Patia, on December 7, 2008, at 12:00 am

In the morning, a sugar coating of snow had fallen, lightly covering the rocks. Ahead of us the canyon forked into two; from the riverbed a red rock spire rose a thousand feet into the air. Low clouds, or high fog, brushed its top. I held my breath. Looking up at a rock . . . → Read More: Day 6: Canyon de Chelly And Hubbell Trading Post

Day 5: Mesa Verde

By Patia, on December 5, 2008, at 12:02 am

I pulled into Cortez, Colorado, the night of Day 4, found a cheap motel and took myself to dinner at a place with a dumb name but an abundance of good online reviews, Tequila’s. It did not disappoint. My fajitas were fabulous — and the waiters were cute. I’m a sucker for dark-haired . . . → Read More: Day 5: Mesa Verde
