Elmers House in Rye Colorado

Let me introduce you to Elmer. Elmer has spent his entire life in Rye, one of the prettest parts of Colorado. Elmers life started out as a Rye telephone truck. Today Elmer lives on a faboulous ranch with fanastic views.

Life hasn't always been an easy one for Elmer. Rye winters can be hard. When the snow comes it comes in feet.

Elmers favorite parking spot is the furthest from the house but any of the four garages are comfy.

This is the view from Elmers garage of the main house. Nice View HUH!
