I always appreciate the features in our CR Living magazine — hearing why folks chose Cordillera Ranch, what drew them here and what they’ve discovered they enjoy about the Clubs and Hill Country since becoming residents. 

While I was reading the feature in this issue about Jeff and Amye Johnson, mouthwatering and envious of Jeff’s steaks (more on that in a minute), I was struck by a quote from Jeff — “If you build it, they will come.” We all recognize that quote from Field of Dreams, but for a lot of Cordillera Ranch homeowners, the Clubs and community represent a beacon to call friends and family back home, with endless activities unique to our neck-of-the-woods and settings sure to be remembered for a lifetime. 

As Amye said, family is certainly an important part of their lives — a sentiment that I’m sure is the case for everyone at Cordillera Ranch. 

Finally, I would NEVER solicit for, and/or invite myself to dinner, but Jeff and Amye, please go ahead and pencil me in for the next time steaks hit the grill because I’m going to make an exception here and formally extend my acceptance to come over for dinner at your convenience. Thanks in advance!
