The Daily Bread's last day ... This morning was delicious. A little bittersweet, but mostly just sweet ... especially the pastry! Today was the Daily Bread's final day in business. For more than 30 years the Main Street establishment has been serving Montrose and now they're closing — and with that, closing a chapter, capping an era.

Read More Casting about in an oasis When Dana and Nolan Egbert moved to Montrose about 10 years ago, they watched their son Caleb become deeply immersed in the sport of fly fishing.
