Artless.
That’s the word for this one. Not lacking skill, the older sense: without pretense, without performance. Two people who love the mountains, love each other, love a good meal, and saw no reason to complicate it.
Crested Butte gave them wildflowers and thin light and a table plated with food made like art as if it was the only choice. Nothing borrowed for effect. Just two kids building a whole life out of what they already loved.
