Hola!

Well it has been quite warm here at the ranch for the last week. Well....hot to us anyway. Eighty to eighty five degrees here and we are all complaining how hot it is. :) But the mornings and evenings still cool down which is nice.
Our family reunion group and the "Pond Contest" winners had a great week. The ranch was filled with lots of children enjoying pony rides, the swimming pool, the petting zoo and much more. There was always laughter in the dining room every evening with everyone recalling the days events. Friendships and memories were made and we hope to see all of them again next year.
Here's a great shot of two of our staff members this summer really "playing the part" at our Mexican Buffet lunch. They are quite the hosts. :) All the staff is doing a great job this summer and have enjoyed all of you that have stayed with us. We all look forward to meeting the rest of you as the season continues.

Update

We've had great weather here at the ranch the last two weeks. Warm temperatures, the afternoon showers have disappeared, and the Colorado blue skies are gorgeous.

For you fisherman out there, you'll be happy to know that all of the spring run off has passed through, therefore the water is clear, crisp and flowing at a great level right now. The fishing is unbelievable!! Come and visit us to "wet a line" and perhaps catch one of our famous, 18-22 inchers. :) We are an Orvis Endorsed Fishing Lodge as well. http://www.northforkranch.com/html/orvis_endorsement.htm

The winners of our "Pond Ice-Breaking Contest" are arriving today for their free, family vacation they won. We are very excited they will be joining us again! Their two little ones are eligible to ride this year!! We also have one of our family reunions that visit us year after year arriving today as well. We are glad to have them all back as well as some new guests this week.

It's going to be a great week! Come and EXPERIENCE North Fork Ranch! http://www.northforkranch.com/index.html
