Happy Monday, Montrose! Justin here filling in for Katharhynn with your newsletter. (She's enjoying a nice vacation with her family on the Front Range). I'm noticing that the weather has been cooling down a bit. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come. (Fall in Colorado is my favorite.) Youth Appreciation Day: This past Saturday, Montrose youth made their way around town to visit local places for free and participate in some educational activities. Above: Bonnie Olea takes a photo of her grandchildren — Kambria, 8; Joseph, 2; and Alayna, 6.
