I stopped by my friend's bookstore, White Rabbit Books & Curiosities, which is located on Durango's beautiful Animas River Trail. In this photo, Keena, the owner of the bookstore, is pictured. She celebrated her 12th year in business this past summer. If you've not been to her small bookstore, please check it out when you're in the area.

Tad Smith’s “Voices…” (along with 22 of the original 27 poets was Durango’s shining moment. Caprice Fox’s Create Art and Tea gave rise to a new art form and witnessed by over 200 local Durango neighbors during First Friday soirée , further proving collaboration between the arts is not only possible but truly awesome inspiring. Thank you to everyone involved in working TOGETHER on this beautiful project. This is a testament to the adage: “Focus On The Good”! … and did it ever succeed!
As ever,
