As an artist, I spend countless hours hiking and hoping, walking and working, sometimes even running while trying to chase a good evening light glow in the best possible place I can find. I end up running because I just can\u2019t find it! Sometimes, I\u2019m in a panic. Surely, there is \u201cthe place\u201d just over the next hill. Let me tell you this \u2013 it is a rare event to find \u201cit!\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 The perfect setting (artistically) just doesn\u2019t exist our there. Nature in all its glory and tranquility, even its harshness and disorganization, just doesn\u2019t arrange things perfectly for a two dimensional view very often. Sitting on the bank of this river would be glorious, but getting a photo of it would be difficult. So, as an artist, when I enter \u201cthe world of chaos,\u201d my eye is searching for design, color, contrast, and mood. My mind thinks, \u201cI see some here, but over there, that is nice. If only there was more water or mist from the falls, and some beams of light coming down would make it perfect.\u201d Alas, it doesn\u2019t happen. So, working from my intense desire to get it all in, I use the memory of those hikes and a variety of subject matter photos to create the spot I wish I could find; that place where you or I\u00a0 would be able to sit for hours and rest, watch the kids play, and have the thoughts of the world overwhelmed by the endless roar of the falls.\u00a0 Don\u2019t you just love water falls? We hike for hours to see them. For me, watching water come over rocks and cascade down in misty expressions causes me to be thankful. Where does this water come from? For millennia, it just keeps on flowing down, down, happily looking for the lowest place to go and reminding us that it is ok to be humble, useful, refreshing, or kind.\u00a0 Roaring Fork Retreat was created for you as a reminder of the beauty and rest which is in the world for you to enjoy! You have a special spot to BE \u2013 humble, useful, refreshing, and kind. Be refreshed \u2013\u00a0 and enjoy.<\/h2>\n
