Book Signing & Reading – Jon Thiem & Deborah Dimon authors of Rabbit Creek Country: Three Ranching Lives in the Heart of the Mountain West

In 1997 Jon Thiem was hiking in Livermore country near Fort Collins, Colorado. Following one fork of Rabbit Creek, he discovered an abandoned house and literally walked into the lives of John and Ida Elliott and Miss Josephine Lamb.
