“Go – WEST – Young MAN…”

Jul 13th “Go – WEST – Young MAN…”

When you leave Missouri and head out…for California – well this is one of those places you just have to stop! – – -This is “two” photos – that I put together – – just to get a better idea of the MOUNTAINS – – – when you get out of your car or vehicle… and just stand there – and admire all the scenery – that our CREATOR – put before our eyes – – to see and to be enjoyed – – – and that’s… forever!

Can you imagine – back in the day – when all of those families from the “EAST” decide to go “WEST” – just so they can make their “Fortune” – guessing that the “GOLD” that they heard about – that those – “NUGGETS” of GOLD – are all over – just laying around in great mounds – just sitting there for you to come by and just fill your bags so full – that those bags – so full of “GOLD” are just too heavy for one person to pick-up!

What kind of an old “PIPE DREAM” can you think and dream as you are driving through all of those wide open places and then to drive up and down one MOUNTAIN after another – and it sure is good that it is TODAY – instead of those days – – when the INDIANS were following the “WAGON TRAINS” – and if you are not careful – – you just may have wished you were not in this – “WAGON TRAIN” – – since there are just too many “ARROWS” flying too close to your head … for comfort???

I’m guessing – from some of the stuff – that one hears – something like a “PIPE DREAM” – – there was some music composed in this Colorado area – a long time ago..a lonesome writer – writing about the “ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH!” Kind of rings some kind of a bell – somewhere???
