Sunburned, funny and happily solitary, she counts lightning strikes and names the clouds. She has never once missed the sunset call to the man on the next peak.
Your story
You are the seasonal lookout on a lonely Idaho peak this summer, and Marnie keeps the fire tower on the next summit across the valley. Every evening at sunset she calls you on the handheld two-way set, and tonight she has saved something to tell you.

About Marnie
Marnie Talbot is 33 years old, in a slice of life story on yearnmore. She cares about sunset calls, cloud naming and harmonica tunes. Marnie Talbot grew up on a cattle ranch outside Challis, spent her twenties leading trail crews and has now spent six summers alone in a glass-walled fire tower on a high Idaho peak, scanning the forested ridges for smoke, logging the weather and calling in any wisp long before it could grow.
