America From Fruita, Colorado

PLEASE DON'T MISS MCNAUGHTON'S INTERACTIVE PAINTING "ONE NATION UNDER GOD"
WE'VE COME TO FRUITA TO A COFFEE SHOP THIS MORNING....and so far, no vampires spotted, Treg. No one seems to have heard, if one were loose in the area. Needless to say the Chamber of Commerce wouldn't be too pleased if the rumor got out. Meanwhile, a beautiful day in a darling little town just down the road from Grand Junction and only a stone's throw from Utah where I'll be going Monday morning.....Wyoming bound. But make no mistake, I love it here and could spend much, much more time in these parts. To make matters even better, Mesa County is about as conservative as it gets, and My Bad Influence is very involved in conservative politics here, much to his credit. I would say Republican, but the Tea Party movement here is very strong because most voters are very fiscally prudent.

Freshly sheared baby alpacas at the Saturday Farmer's Market. A crowd pleaser for all ages.


Did you know if you smell a series of different scents, even good scents like soap your sense of smell goes numb after ten or more? The remedy? Take a big whiff of coffee beans to clear your nasal palette.

  1. Since most blood suckers tend to be Liberals, I thought it was a false sighting. ;)

    I spent two days there recently. Don't miss the Colorado NM. Wish we could get them to build one of those in Williamson County.

  2. Colorado National Monument is indeed fabulous! Perhaps Marsha could arrange to get one to Franklin....if anyone can, she can, Treg.
