“The mountains here just sort of wrap around you. How could you not love it here? Lee used to call it ‘High Country Heaven.’ After he was done with the navy, he knew he wanted horses. So he started that trail riding business for 96 Ranch and he would tell the history of the valley to everyone who would go on his tours. When Battlement Mesa was built and people started moving here, they all loved to go on those horse tours and hear his stories about the history and the people here. I could listen to those stories over and over and I knew I wanted to record them so I could have them forever. So, a few years before he passed away, we sat down together and did just that; we recorded them.”
