Day 7 CCL, home

Mountain saloon and cafe
Home Ranch Bottoms is being revitalized. This is our first stop inside. Driven past it a bunch of times going to and from Polebridge.
Mountain saloon and cafe
Deep in the middle of nowhere. Not far from the Canadian border, also in the middle of nowhere.
Mountain saloon and cafe
Nice rug, in the middle of nowhere, on a stage in the middle of nowhere.

Howdy. A rare photo where we actually took someone up on their offer to take our photo.
Newspaper
Home Ranch Bottoms. What does that even mean? Seriously.

Starting to make sense now. Right?
10-second video: Home Ranch Bottoms stage.

Without a person’s or place’s history there’s no context.

No context is dangerous.

Kinda like thinking customer satisfaction is not dangerous.

i did a TEDx Talk about why going the extra mile is a flawed concept and what to do instead.

So much context for any TED speaker (or any person). Most have no idea the history the speaker (or person) brings to the stage (life).

Insight/BFO (blinding fact of the obvious): Most do not care. This is a fact. It’s easy to live with and accept. It’s also easy to ignore and or forget. However, context is like adding color, or sound, or touch (As if you were there) to a black and white photo.
