This half cabin was built by a bachelor who planned on finishing it when his bride arrived.
Apparently something went wrong. The bride-to-be never moved in and the house was never completed.

"Waking Up at a Powder River Ranch" Montana



"Waking Up at the Ranch"
Powder River Montana
Montana Thanksgiving 2015
7"x5" original watercolor
140 lbs. cold pressed paper
Arches Bright white

This is the Glenn Gay ranch on the Powder River in southeastern Montana.
It was a beautiful clear morning.  The temperature was in the single digits.
We were nice and warm inside with a fire in the stove. 
We drove the last hour on unpaved roads to get here in the dark. 
This is my first glimpse of the ranch.
Thank you Art and Deb for bringing us along.
