The mountain in my picture is Lobo Peak, however, not on Pueblo land. You're most welcome to grunt and sweat and get to the top!

Years ago when my wife and I were newlyweds and exploring this country, my Midwestern father was fond of saying, "But you can't eat the mountains." When we decided to leave Michigan and move to Vermont, his warning was, "You can't eat the mountains." When years later we left Vermont and headed to Oregon, he again warned, "But you can't eat the mountains." No you can't, but they get in your blood. These phenomenal landscapes become essential and stimulating. It's true, you can't eat the mountains. But they sure make your food taste better. That’s interesting, John.
