On a hillside above Creede, Colorado



We had gone to the hill above Creede because legend has it that the grave of Bob Ford, the man who shot Jesse James, was located up here somewhere.  And not only legend, but local history and a few early photos bear this rumor out.  But despite our searching, we never found the tombstone.  I later learned that Mr. Ford's remains had been moved back to Missouri to rest closer to his family.  Fortunately, the  vista and the remarkable sky helped me find a wonderful image of a tranquil summer day in southern Colorado.
