PERSPECTIVE


Life can be rather harsh.  Life can be beautiful!  The vistas will always be there long after you are. 

It doesn't matter whether you are looking up or looking down.

If your perspective, attitude, optimism, and energy aren't in sync not much else is in your life.

ELK & LIFE


Hunting elk can be deliriously wild!  It can be so easy.  It can be and is usually very hard.  It often takes you where your soul is free.  It can take you to sights and sounds not often heard or seen by people you know.  It can take you to lofty perches, to ample evidence of prey and predator, to skies so clear they make you feel you are in the next galaxy!



LIFE, 2024, MONTANA


This magnificent cottonwood tree defines the Ghost Ranch.  At Ghost Ranch, our attention to personal detail of the land and habitat drove our attitude of stewardship because we were of one mind that land had become a part of the family.  For many people, their Montana ranch changes them. Part of that is you get to Montana and start meeting good people who aren’t trying to impress anyone.  We very seldom had a conversation in Montana with someone where we did the whole, “Well what did you do”? It just isn’t important in Montana.  A big change from the big city in most of America. It becomes about kids, about the choice of lifestyle. You hear people talk about their Montana ranches and how they feel they impact lives and the world from their chunk of land, great sunrises and sunsets, and their closest neighbors being deer and elk.

You get to observe things that not many people in the world get to see. A bald eagle catching a fish in front of you, walking out your front door bumping into a big buck. These are not made up but actual occurrences, weekly if not daily, on the Ghost Ranch. 


Montana, Ghost Ranch


Owning a Montana hunting ranch is hard work. Many don’t realize just how much hard work it entails. A ranch will teach you respect for putting in a hard day’s work. Life gets in your soul and I’ve been told numerous times it changes your outlook on dealing with stress and urban life. I know it did for me.

GHOST RANCH, MONTANA





Running a Montana ranch teaches you about having to make hard decisions.  If you own a hunting ranch you may have to decide which wild animal to take to improve genetics. What crop to plant to help increase the population of certain species? It can teach skinning skills that have swayed kids into wanting to become surgeons. Nature is a fantastic schoolroom filled with problem-solving skills and lessons. Some of those decisions give you instantaneous feedback, while others may take decades to decipher if you chose right. Those skills are transferable to any job on this earth.

AGENDA 47

Donald J. Trump needs to initiate AGENDA 47.

The abolishment/overhaul/rewiring of leadership in the rancid, rotten, corrupt DOJ, FBI, FDA, etc.

 


Coyote............

This furry killer reminded me of a certain politician.   

Old, angry, not going anywhere from now on.  

Died on November 5, 2024.

Saving fawns one coyote at a time.

May Creator bless America and Donald J. Trump.
