A VERY BUSY WEEK WENT BY AND WE ALL MADE IT!
A great day for Lyons to be on the USA Pro Challenge cycling race, which brought a lot of folks to town, and gave the Town a lot of good publicity! Great job Chamber members, Town staff, and all who helped! Special thanks to Chamber members Lee Hall, Laurie Kennedy, Lou Thackston and Kheli Mason. Those yellow shirts from St. Vrain Market hit the spot! I understand that Lyons’ Julian Kyer was one of the bikers.

Roads Traveled with Linda L. Osmundson
Santa Fe, New Mexico
Drive south on I-25 about seven hours from Lyons and you arrive in Santa Fe, New Mexico. “A City Different,” “Aspen’s sister,” “O’Keeffe Country,” the highest US capitol city at over 7200 feet, and Spanish for “holy faith.” Thirty-two years ago my husband and I visited the city for a company business conference. More recently, we traveled there to help our middle son and his family settle into a house. Santa Fe has definitely changed!

Highway Of Legends
About 205 miles from Lyons, or a three and a half hour drive, you’ll find one of the first scenic highways of Colorado, the Highway of Legends. While on the way to Santa Fe, my husband and I passed many signs, which directed travelers to this eighty-two mile, two hour scenic side trip that begins in Walsenburg and ends in Trinidad. You take Rte. 160, west toward LaVeta where the Highway of Legends actually begins at Rte. 12.

What Grandma Ate... And Why
By Carol Marra
Frances crawled out an upper window of her family’s Iowa farmhouse and onto the tin roof above the front porch; she was toting a tray of thinly sliced apples from the orchard.

These apples would be the stars of the dried apple pudding, with whipped cream from the dairy cows, which was a staple of celebratory family dinners.Mysteries Of Menopause Explained
Part One: What is going on?
With Dr. Sara Hart, ND, MSOM, LAc of Stillwater Healing Arts Clinic, Lyons
One moment you’re sitting in a meeting having a conversation with a colleague and you’re able to present yourself as a professional, intelligent person. Before you can blink, your mind turns to Jell-O, you can’t remember the last word you said nor the poignant message you were trying to convey, your body temperature seems to be going through the roof, and you’re sweating profusely.
