The sun is out, it’s a great day to be in Durango and I’m surrounded by
art. Does it get any better than this? The value of the sun and the location go without saying, but did you know that viewing art has health benefits? One of our customers just made the comment that “coming to Sorrel Sky Gallery is like getting a massage”. I knew exactly what he meant, but he went on to explain that it is a relaxing place to visit. A gallery, versus a museum, is a place where one can invest in the fine art and jewelry on view. But it also means that visitors are welcome to simply amble thru the gallery taking in all that the art on view offers in terms of reflection and beauty and interest. We so enjoy sharing the stories of the paintings, pottery, sculpture and jewelry and of the artists whose extraordinary talents we represent. Enjoy Durango for the natural beauty that surrounds us in the landscape and in the diverse offerings of our talented artists.
Sunshine, Durango and Art – What Could Be Better?
Finally a little bit of some cooler weather today in gorgeous Durango, Co. All I
can say as that this heat wave is making me jealous that I am working instead of
relaxing in the refreshing Animas River. I know it is still a little to early to be
inner tubbing, but I need to go rafting hopefully once this weekend. It is so
great to see all the different rafting companies doing such a great job making
sure their passengers have a one of a kind experience. Keep it going Mild to
Wild, Mountain Waters, Durango River Tripppers, Outlaw Tours and Durango
Rafting Company for all your hard work to making our Animas River adored by
everyone willing to take the trek down river! Especially since it is already Animas
River Days which is one of my favorite activities to do enjoy in the summer! I
mean who does not love going down to a spot where you can over look the river
and see all the smiling faces having such a great time. There is so much to be
entertained by from a river parade to face painting to an art show making sure
there is activities for all ages. Cannot wait to head down to the the Doubletree
hotel and sit outside the Animas River Cafe to watch as the festivities
begin!

Today was a day that I am beyond content to live in a Colorado, mountain town such as my Durango. I went for a bike ride along the Animas River Trail with my boyfriend from my house to enjoy the new, seasonal menu from East by Southwest for lunch. There was an array of new items to choose from that blew my taste palette….never had tried sushi with bacon and let me tell you it was quite the experience! We decided to exercise a little lunch off by walking around the historic downtown. To my surprise there was all kinds of new stuff going on. Cosmopolitan had now opened even more of their rooftop deck (made me think it would be fun to throw a little party up there) and Blu Boutique has moved shop on to Main Ave. I was able to peek inside the new space and I feel like its going to add some new glamour to downtown. With summer now in swing, I was dazed by how time had flown since the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic is almost here. My best friend has been training for the past four months to check this event off her bucket list. I cannot wait to cheer her on both at the starting line and with a Ska True Blonde in hand for her in Silverton. GO RACERS!!
