During a recent weekend adventure, we drove up the Greenville Mine Road in search of sites unseen. A local rancher was running livestock and we found ourselves in the midst of Calypso. Perhaps this mare thought she was hidden, but her beauty shines brightly. Rural Routt County still garners a treasure trove of the old west cowboy pioneer life, as is evident by the well worn cabin behind the mare. The story beckons you to look just beyond the pale, and an open door to imagination, sites unseen, roughneck cowboys, ghost stories of gold mining and perhaps Calypso.
...Of these things, speak, Immortal One,
And tell the tale once more in our time.... Homer's Odyssey
