See this sofa…This is where I am currently sitting. Except the room looks all messy because I’m surrounded by books, papers, blankets and cats.

This sofa is sitting in this house. Sweet photo, huh? Our friend Shanna took it.

This house looks out at these mountains. I totally swiped this photo, which I suspect our friend Bob Thomason shot. You can tell I filched it because there’s no snow in them there hills now.

I’ve spent many a happy hour sitting on the above couch, looking at the above mountains and knitting. Napping has been a favorite activity as well. (I’ve also cooked, cleaned and written plenty, but that’s not sales talk now is it?) This could be you. ‘Cause the Micro Ranch is for sale.

Two-bedrooms of 1955–era dream home in breathtaking Silver Cliff, Colo. (Think Cicely, Alaska with longer days.) There’s even yarn for sale in this burg. And nice people who raise alpacas.

Why would we sell such a treasure? Because we’re buying an even smaller place where we can put the above couch and sit and nap and gaze out at the magnificent blue-grey spires of the Sangre de Cristos. A place with a tractor.
