picture itpictures are meant to have frames.

they help focus the eye and make a neat and tidy artistic package.

normally, our frame for the picture that is the montrose area, is a newspaper page.

but three times a year, we change out the frame and present a new and gleaming look for the vast panoply of images and stories that are part of our world.

that’s what valley living is all about. this is our opportunity to shine a bit, to take you out of the day-to-day and into a land of creativity.

We trust you enjoy this change of frame as much as we enjoy bringing it to you.

in this edition, you will discover stories from communities near and far. for instance, our lead story this time around is about Jesse Call and her company Westerngrace. Call produces some of the finest women’s Western wear around from her home in Cimarron.

she could work anywhere on the face of the globe, but she finds inspiration here on the Western slope, just as many of us do.

this edition also contains a story about box Canyon lodge in ouray. it is a historical gem that holds memories for many across the state and around the region.

a major restoration project at the egyptian theater in delta is also part of this edition. not only can you see a movie, but you can visit a museum at the same time.

for the artistically inclined, we bring you a story about Weehawken Creative arts in ridgway. talk about inspiration. you will want to go out and create something after you read this feature.

Craft brewing has swept the country in recent years, and the montrose area has some of the finest ales – pale or otherwise – in the country. you can read about those in this edition as well.

and that’s not all, but you’ll have to dig into the pages that follow to get the full picture.

thank for checking out this edition of valley living. if you have suggestions for future stories, please contact us. We’re always looking for the best and brightest ideas.

so pour yourself a cup of coffee – or a locally brewed beer if you desire – sit back and enjoy.

I f you have always thought of womens Western wear as the Dale evans look, you’ll change

your mind once you see the work of Jesse Call.

From her home in Cimarron, Call is producing some of the most fashion-forward looks industrywide under the name Westerngrace, founded in 2004. and when she says “producing,” she means exactly that – she designs the patterns, sources the material and thread, cuts the material and sews it into the finished product.

“it’s what you do when you’re just getting started with your line,” said Call, 34, who didn’t discover art and design until her second year in college studying biochemistry and math.

in the ensuing years, she worked at Cruel girl, a western fashion manufactuer part of the Miller international inc. in Denver.

She also interned with Manuel, often referred to as the “tailor to the stars,” particularly in the country music scene.

Call gathered the best ideas – learned a few things not to do – and let her

imagination be her guide to arrive where she is today.

you won’t find Westerngrace fashions in mainline Western stores, primarily because of the price points, Call explained.

“For most retailers, a long black skirt with a leather yoke that sells for $1,500 just isn’t something they’re interested in,” Call said.

Her most expensive piece is a double collar blazer with leather details made by John Blair Saddlery. it has silver buttons by Silverking Silversmiths and is constructed of italian wool. it retails for $2,200.

in high end Western stores, such as Leddy’s Ranch at Sundance in downtown Fort Worth, Texas, customers are less concerned with the cost – they want the latest fashion and are willing to pay.

Leddy’s is Westerngrace’s largest wholesale client. Call has developed a number of garments that a unique to Leddys, which also has its own handmade Western boot line among other high-end fashion specialties.

another retail success for Call has been Cry Baby Ranch in Larimer Square downtown Denver.

beloW Jesse Call, a graduate of Columbus College of art and design in ohio, is the force behind Westerngrace Western wear, handcrafted in Cimarron.

initially, around 90 percent of her sales were through retailers, but in recent months, sales from her website have kicked in.

“Right now, we’re at about 60 percent of sales online and 40 percent from retailers,” Call said.

Topping the sales chart is a black ruffle skirt, popular because it is easy to fit and alter.

a similar circle skirt is also on the best-seller list along with silk gingham

blouses, which sell at rate of 20 per month on average.

Most of Call’s designs are rendered in blacks and browns.

“That’s what comes to mind when i think of classic,” Call said. “neutral colors allow women to accessorize with items they already have. My brain is at ease with solid colors.”

Her process is simple. She uses a Pfaff sewing machine that dates back to the ‘50s, straight stitch with a reverse. it has knee

and foot pedals that allow her to have both hands on the fabric. She recently purchased a machine that simplifies the process of sewing leather to fabric, which can be tricky.

She prefers polyester thread because it is more durable and the colors don’t fade.

as Westerngrace becomes more popular, it becomes more susceptible to rippoffs – a common practice in Western wear where someone takes your garment to China and finds a factory to mass produce them.

“i’m not big enough to have to worry too much about that,” Call said. “Sometimes i will see something that has a “scary resemblance” to something i’ve designed.

Call believes imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Call lives with her husband, ranch manger on the 11,000-acre Blue Creek Ranch in Cimarron. They moved from Jackson, Wyo., two years ago after deciding winters there were not to their liking.

While the location is great for its vistas and solitude, it’s not a location where you can readily purchase fabric, thread or buttons.

She sources those items online from wholesalers in new york and Los angeles. in a pinch, she can stop in at a basic retail sewing shop and pick up a yard of goods or a card of buttons, but that means paying retail prices.

although Call’s days start early and generally end when her husband politely turns out the lights in her sewing room, she wouldn’t trade it for anything.

She plans to continue to grow the line, perhaps offering a few additional garments that are priced a bit lower than what she offers now.

“We love it here,” she added. ■

F or almost 50 years, Jeanne Dewsup and the egyptian Theater have been providing

Delta and its visitors an escape from their everyday lives.

Dewsup and her husband Stanley purchased the historic theater in 1967.

“We used to argue all the time about when we bought it,” she said. “He has passed away, but i am still here.”

The theater is on the national Register of Historic Places and on the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties.

“Being on the state list has made some grant money available to help with improvements,” Dewsup said. “i received a grant once for which i had to provide matching funds, so i haven’t done that much.”

Dewsup said she had assistance with having the theater added to the national list.

“There is a lot of paperwork you have to do, and it’s very time-consuming. i was glad to have someone help me,” she said. “More people might do it if there wasn’t so much paperwork and effort involved.”

Dewsup has worked through the years to restore the theater to its original look from 1928 when it opened. That has meant working on all the egyptian-themed pieces.

“We were working on the walls, and a guy discovered the paintings on the walls, and we have restored them,” she said. “and we have repainted all the heads in the theater to their original look.”

Plenty of work on the screen area has been done.

“The decorative poles had to be taken out when the screen was changed out for the cinemascope projection,” Dewsup said. “Then we had to put them back in and repaint them. The scarab above the screen is the original one that has been there forever.”

The old curtain is gone after it quit functioning.

“We had a really big velvet curtain that went up and down, but one night it got caught up and wouldn’t move,” Dewsup said. “i had to get several guys from the audience to help get it put back up, so we took it out.”

tHe Historic egyptian theater has been providing entertainment to delta since 1928.

tHe egyptian tHeater is on the national and state lists of historic places.

On the back wall is a painting on a piece of canvas.

“george Rodriguz of Southwest Stucco redid all the walls and the ceiling,” Dewsup said. “We had to fix the ceiling because it was leaking.”

The lobby was redone several years ago. The bathrooms were moved downstairs, and the concession stand was added.

“The theater didn’t use to have a concession stand, there was a candy store next door where people bought their candy,” Dewsup said. “We added the concession stand, and people love it. We have really good popcorn.”

Dewsup said the digital projectors have changed the way movies are shown.

“Back in the day, you had to constantly watch it because of how the carbon arc projection worked,” she said. “The platters came along about 20 years ago, and you had to watch them less, but you still had to watch them. Digital is expensive, but it works so easily. We were the first to have 3D pictures on the West Slope.”

Dewsup said the audience has changed through the years. There are more adults than kids coming to the movies.

“it used to be this was the place the kids would come on Friday night and hang out. it was the place to see and be seen,” she said. “it was funny to watch because one of them would go to the bathroom, but they were checking out the audience to see who was here.”

She said the movies have changed as well.

“There are some movies that aren’t appropriate for kids, but we have had ‘Minions’ and ‘inside Out,’ and those were popular,” she said. “The adults seem to enjoy it more. i think it is something from their past and they have great

tHe poles that decorate the screen area were redone after a new screen was installed.

memories of it.”a year after buying the

egyptian Theater, the Dewsups bought the TruVu Drive-in. Jeanne said that drive-in is flourishing, but faces challenges.

“When 3D came out, they weren’t sure it was going to work for drive-ins; if it didn’t, we would have had to close, but they have fixed it,” she said. “The guy we bought it from was always sorry he sold it after it continued to thrive.”

She has had offers to buy the land on which the drive-in sits.

“a guy from Florida bought up a lot of the land around the drive-in, and he wanted to buy the drive-in and knock it down, but i didn’t sell,” Dewsup said. “i am afraid the city will come out there during development and put up a bunch of lights. Too many street lights will ruin the picture on the screen.”

Dewsup said a senior citizens group often visits the drive-in.

“They showed up and watched ‘Mission impossible,’ and then stayed for the second movie that night,” she said. “it was R-rated and kind of raunchy, i was surprised they stayed. as one guy said, ‘if they don’t like it, they can leave,’ but many stayed.”

Dewsup said she isn’t sure the people of Delta appreciate the egyptian Theater and its history.

“They come and watch a show, but i don’t think they look at everything around them and know how long it has been around, people from out of town love it,” she said. “and the people who move away come back to Delta and the first thing they do is come to the movie. That’s what keeps me going.” ■

Natural hot springs feed lodge staple

By Richard ReederDaily Press News Editor

Hot tubs soothe guests

spectacular mountain views await visitors to the box Canyon lodge in ouray.


30 31Valley Living

t he Box Canyon Lodge in Ouray has a long history of providing visitors with the soothing sensations the natural hot springs of the area provide.

and the lodge continues to upgrade and create a natural, warm environment.

The Box Canyon Lodge opened in 1913 as Cogar’s Sanitarium. it has had several owners and name changes since.

in 1959, Tommy and Della May (or Sally) Fellin opened the Box Canyon Motel with 10 units. in 2006 Richard and Karen avery purchased the lodge and have been constantly upgrading it since.

“They bought the lodge from John and Barbara Uhles, they even kept the ad from the Denver Post where they saw it for sale,” Manager Marie Ziemba said. “We never close, we set aside 6-10 rooms at a time to work on, so we are constantly upgrading.”

The lodge has four outdoor hot tub springs for guests to enjoy. The temperatures vary by tub.

“We replaced the cedar tubs on the springs five years ago,” Ziemba said. “We used cedar to give them a natural look and feel.”

The water comes out of the ground at 140 degrees, but each tub has an individual thermostat to control the temperature.

tHe box Canyon lodge offers solitude just a few steps from the lodge.

Richard Reeder/Daily Press.

“We keep the tubs at a constant temperature so its comfortable for the guests,” Ziemba said. “as we cool the water, it goes through copper piping and we use that to heat the rooms.”

The temperatures of the tubs vary from 101 to 108 degrees. and Ziemba said people can tell the difference.

“Visitors from europe and asia like the water hot because they are used to tubs that are hotter than allowed in the U.S.,” she said. “But we don’t let it get past 108, it all depends on what people enjoy.”

There are 39 rooms and six suites and a two-bedroom apartment available for guests. The honeymoon suite features a two-person jacuzzi tub. Rooms have either a king size bed, queen size bed or two queen beds. and all the rooms start with the number one.

and the lodge has some history to it.author ayn Rand stayed at the lodge

while researching her book, “atlas Shrugged.”“Ouray was the basis for the Utopian

society in the book,” Ziemba said. “Other times have been romantic. We had a guest

staying in a room, her boyfriend came and proposed and they got married at the picnic tables.”

The hotel provides a light breakfast for its guests in the lobby.

“We don’t have a kitchen, so it’s just

whatever we can buy,” Ziemba said. “We have pastries, fruit, juice and coffee each morning.”

They do have a partnership with one restaurant to benefit the guests.

“We use exotic earth Coffee from Ridgway,” Ziemba said. “We work with Roast and Toast on main and they give guests 20 percent off breakfast and free coffee.”

Box Canyon Lodge is also the closest lodging to the Ouray ice Park, and they work together to accommodate guests.

“We have robes, coffee and books for sale in the lobby, but we let the inventory dwindle a little before the ice Climbing Festival each year,” Ziemba said. “The ice Park will bring over merchandise, and we have it for sale for them.”

Ziemba said the averys are adamant about supporting local business.

“everything we buy and sell has a Colorado connection,” Ziemba said. “They want to keep the money in the local economy to benefit the community.”

The four hot tubs are on different levels up the side of the

hill. at the top of the staircase is a picnic area that is popular with guests.

“you get up there and it can be very romantic because it is very quiet,” Ziemba said. “We have had many proposals and weddings up there. We have a local caterer we work with and create some fantastic weddings.”

Ziemba said Karen avery is particular about the furnishings for the rooms.

“She has a great sense of style and wants everything to fit in with the theme of the lodge,” she said. “She buys furniture from Willow Creek in Ridgway, and it has the old look and feel that fits into the theme.”

Ziemba said the staff is loyal to the lodge.

“We have people that have worked here a long time because it is a relaxing, comfortable place to work, they enjoy coming to work,” she said. “i have been in hotel management for 26 years, and this is my favorite place i have ever worked.”

e ver since it opened its doors in 2004, Weehawken Creative arts has been focused on educating people in various art forms.

Throughout the years, the target group has changed.

Weehawken Creative arts was begun by Susie Opdahl. She had moved to Ouray with her husband Jim in the late ‘90s from Oregon.

Opdahl had a vision to create an arts education program to attract people from around the world and be an economic development tool for the area.

“Her idea was people would come and eat local and stay local,” executive Director ashley King-grambley said. “There were week long workshops, mostly for adults.”

But the economic crisis that struck the U.S. in the early 2000s hit home to the Ridgway organization.

“When the economy crashed, the model of Weehawken crashed with it, enrollments just stopped” King-grambley said. “We found getting local students was easier, so now it’s more of offering a service and helping people with personal growth.”

Weehawken now offers more than 200 classes for adults and youth in Montrose, Ridgway and Silverton.

already this year the organization has offered 67 adult classes and 160 youth classes.

in 2009 Weehawken was gifted the Ridgway Rendezvous arts and Crafts Festival. This will be the 32nd year for the event.

“it is a great two-day event that we use as a fundraising device,” King-grambley said. “it helps us with scholarship money for many programs.”

King-grambley said there are usually around 140 artists from across the U.S. and the lists of artists is constantly changing.

“We addressed the artistic viewpoints and quality of the artists,” she said. “We couldn’t have any emotional attachments to anyone. The only people who are guaranteed a spot are the ribbon winners from the previous year.”

King-grambley said the youth classes are priced lower than the adult classes, but all fees only pay for the cost of the instructor and supplies.

She said Weehawken is expanding its special events and programs throughout the area.

One special event is the amateur Sculptor Contest. entrants create their own sculpture.

“They have two hours, and we have contestants from 14- years-old on up,” King-grambley said. “a panel of artists selects a winner and there is a good cash prize for the winner.”

Wehawken is also sponsoring artist studio tours. There are monthly tours in Ouray and Ridgway to see where artists perform their magic.

The Sneffels Fiber Fest is another event Weehaken sponsors. it is in September at the Ouray 4-H event Center.

“it involves weaving and yarn, and there are some great finished products,” King-granbley said. “it attracts about 600 people and there are usually 27-30 vendors. it is a great event.”

There is also a holiday event – the gingerbread House decorating contest attracts families from around the region.

“it’s a family event, and you have to use items from our island of candy to decorate them,” King-grambley said. “it’s incredible what some people can do.”

One of the most popular offerings is the dance program, taught by Dance artistic Director natasha Pyeatte. She has undergone extensive education in theater and dance.

The classes are taught in the Silverton School. Pyeatte has directed Las Veags-style productions at the Montrose Pavillion.

“each year at Christmas, she either does “nutcracker” or the “Polar express,” and they are really good,” King-granbley said. “This spring she will do the “Wizard of Oz.” They will have wires strung from the rafters for the flying monkeys.”

Weehawken recently joined forces with the Sherbino Theater in Ridgway.

“We had similar causes and similar staff, so now we share staff. it’s highly unusual and exciting,” King-grambley said. “We are pursuing partnership with other groups. it’s great for all the art organizations to sit and talk and promote the arts.” ■

W hen talking to local

brewery owners

Daniel Leonardi and

Phil Freismuth, it’s impossible to tell that

either man has ever done anything else

but obsess over the perfect beer.

Leonardi, owner of Two Rascals

Brewing Company, was a wildland

firefighter before opening his brewery

and tasting room in 2012. Freismuth,

owner of Horsefly Brewing Company

(as well as three other establishments),

was a police officer in Montrose before

he dove into brewing, opening the first

incarnation of Horsefly in a 1000 square

foot storage space in 2009.

Leonardi said brewing beer was a

“different kind of exciting” from fighting

fires, and the idea of being his own boss

was too good to resist.

“in 2005 we first had the idea to

open a brewery,” Leonardi said. “i started

teaching myself, and then i started taking

classes from Tom Hennessy at Colorado

Boy (Brewery.)”

Currently, Two Rascals has seven

beers (as well as root beer) on tap: india

Pale ale, amber, Stout, irish Red, Citra

Pale, Blonde and Cream ale. Leonardi

is also starting to plot out this season’s

specialities — he might be able to

purchase some local rhubarb, and he’s

planning on some spruce coming from

another brewery in Pagosa Springs.

“They’re very traditional beers,

which is actually kind of hard to find

these days,” he said. “it’s just well-

balanced, clean, good beer.”

Leonardi brews one to three

times a week, depending on the season

and demand. “To brew, it takes about eight hours,

but we don’t serve it until at least 14

days,” he said. “it takes five to seven days

for it to ferment, another day to filter it and another day to carbonate it. Beer changes a lot, the way it tastes, and it’s a little more stable after 14 days, so you just kind of give it enough time to come into its own. When you serve it too soon, people can tell it’s green.”

Horsefly has eight beers on tap, with a number of seasonals in the mix at any given time. in early October, the brewing crew is getting ready to roll out pumpkin and green chili beers.

“i think we’re not afraid to experiment with the adjuncts, you know, coconut porter, peach, raspberry… we like to try different things, but i think that’s true with everybody,” Freismuth said.

Freismuth fell in love with home-brewing before hatching a plan to open a brewery with former business partner nigel askew. Today, Freismuth is more focused on running the business side of things. On top of Horsefly, which is a brewery and restaurant, he oversees the Brew and Bogey Club at Black Canyon golf Course as well as airfly and airfly Too

at Montrose Regional airport. “When i get caught up, i want to go

back to the brewing process,” he said. While the presence of three breweries

in a small town could understandably breed a competitive spirit, these local brewers seem more concerned with watching each other’s backs than their bottom lines.

“i think there’s room for everybody, because everyone has their own style,” Freismuth said. “Our red is different from Two Rascals red which is different from Colorado Boy’s red. We work together well, and it’s a great fraternity of brewers. The camaraderie is awesome.”

it even goes as far as purchasing wholesale stock together. Two Rascals sells cans of beer straight out of the tasting room now, and they’re looking at buying cans with Hennessy at Colorado Boy to cut costs. all, Leonardi said, in the spirit of local business.

“The idea with working together locally is it just helps keep the money here,” he said. “For example, if people

don’t come and drink here, i can’t go eat somewhere (local). We buy some of our hops from Olathe, and we buy everything we can get as local as possible, even our tanks.”

according to Leonardi, local craft beers are one of the few ways folks can actually drink domestic drafts. So-called big name domestics are now owned by companies in other countries — Budweiser is owned by Belgium-based aB inBev, and Colorado darling Coors Brewing Company is now a part of Molson Coors, based in Canada.

While small operations like Two Rascals could never compare to international beer companies, they’re staying busy nonetheless.

“We brewed more this July than we brewed last June, July and august combined,” Leonardi said. “it was maybe a little too much. We need it not quite that busy all year. it gets to December, and we’re just hanging out, playing Jenga.”

More likely, he’s brainstorming new beers with his dad, Frank, and keeping the X

locals happy in the constantly-bustling tasting room.

“We’ll take turns, and he has always wanted to brew a black cherry stout, so we’re going to do that this winter,” Leonardi said.

Over at Horsefly, Freismuth already has his winter brew ready — the Winter Warmer has been aging in whiskey barrels for about nine months.

Whatever the beer and wherever the location, it seems like Montrose beer enthusiasts are sure to encounter brewers who are just as passionate about a good pint as they are.
