We hope you enjoy this poem written by Daronda Hettinger.

THE HIGH LONESOME

Listen to the silence, feel the wind caress your hair
Watch the antics of an eagle or the travel of a bear
Smell the sweetness of pine needles warmed by sunbeams dancing frail
Reach down and touch a flower as you pass along the trail
We’d like to have you join us, share our campfire, food and fun
In God’s country, the Rocky Mountains, a place we call High Lonesome
