We looked at a 40 acre property in the area of the lake and dreamt about living in a fairly primitive area that had a great 360 degree view...including the Pinnacles at Blue Mesa and Red Mountain above Ouray. Sometimes, we are very tempted. We are still young enough to enjoy the 'raw' kind of living. I bought some Power Ball tickets today, $136 million would certainly allow it. Ha!
