17th June 2007 - Natural Arch at Crossons, Colorado. For Father's Day, Ashlee Christlieb & Josie Chavez took they dads to Crossons, Colorado. Actually, Jeff's been wanting to go here for a couple of years now. The Natural Arch is located about 1/4 mile west of the old townsite of Crossons which was located between Pine & Bailey, Colorado. The railroad had a water tank here which was sitting right next to the North Fork of the South Platte River. Deer Creek flows into the Platte here. Across the Platte River was a natural rock formation called "Natural Arch."

13th November 2006 - Cody Christlieb. While vacation in Orlando, Florida, I lost the my best friend to old age. Cody had traveled with me all over Colorado and can be seen at the bottom in my January 2002 photo album of Platte Canyon.  At a moments notice, Cody was always ready to travel to James Peak, Mt. Evans, Durango, Cripple Creek, Glenwood Springs, etc., etc. You never realize how much you miss them until they are gone. We had 16 years together and we traveled a lot of miles. Good bye little buddy.
