Longs Peak memories
Thank you for the Longs Peak article in last Friday’s Tribune. It brought back many wonderful memories.
My brother, Lyle Bracken, and Lyle’s best friend, Bob Clause, both of whom were working summer jobs at the Wyoming Hereford Ranch in Cheyenne for the summer; my brother-in-law, Robert Miller of Cheyenne, and I, Gary Bracken from Cheyenne at that time, reached the top of Longs Peak by way of the “Boulder Field” route to the top. The Boulder Field route was very steep, but rather easily climbed by four young men. We arrived at the top only minutes before the two men from California, Bob Kamps and Dave Rearick, reached the summit by climbing the steep east wall.
While we stood there, a storm cloud came up and all our hair stood straight up because of the static electricity in the air. Many warnings about electrical storms that had killed some people before on Longs Peak were posted in several places. We decided to get down as quickly as possible and started down the “Key Hole” route around the west side of the summit and down. I was in the lead and just as I went around an outcropping of rocks, a lightning bolt came down right in front of me and hit on some rocks down below the trail. I have never been so frightened!

The dilemma of a loose moose!
A moose is on the loose!
According to Kara Van Hoose, a representative of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, in a discussion about what to do with the loose Moose, said, “Sedating and moving the moose to a more moose type of place can be dangerous to the health of the moose.” Then we would have (my words, not hers) a very “loose-loose moose.” So the dilemma for the Parks and Wildlife folks is, “How shall we handle this situation to return this loose moose to more ideal loose moose territory?”
Perhaps the Parks and Wildlife Department could decide what to do with the loose moose, or maybe they could let the police department handle the situation and somehow return the loose moose to loose moose territory?
This is a suggestion: Why not just let the moose decide for himself what to do, and everyone else just leave him alone? No doubt this loose moose will do what all loose mooses do — go back on his own to loose moose territory! Loose mooses are smart! That is why they are loose and people can’t decide what to do with a loose moose!
Leave him alone, and he will go home, dragging his loose behind him!
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
And doesn’t know where to find them.
Leave them alone and they will come home
Dragging their tails behind them.
Go loose moose!

Let’s give Trump a little more time
I recently read a letter to the Tribune from a gentleman who said that President Trump hadn’t done anything for the U.S. economy in his six months in office and that no one cared about the border anymore. I think we should give him a little more time on the $30 trillion economy. It may be a little more complicated than balancing your checkbook. And about the border, I think there are 77 million people who still care.
