Dr Lawton was born in Denver, then moved to Kansas as a child. Growing up, he remembers his mother loving the Glenwood Springs area. They visited often, and he fondly recalls getting his first sunburn there. When asked what drew him halfway across the country to Rifle, CO from Chicago, he told the story of how his great grandparents, John and Nora May Ruple, actually arrived in Western Colorado from Ohio in the early 1900’s. They were both teachers and John was also a photographer. They were on a trip to Yellowstone with a group of other teachers in 1905 when John Ruple proposed to Nora May with the stipulation that they live in Colorado.
