No more fires!! And it's been raining every day. Isn't that great news? Things are looking greener.

Hey - this weekend is Jazz Festival and Telluride Truffle is doing a dessert concession. We will have things like chocolate espresso cake with a true chocolate butter cream. Chocolate truffle cake, great carrot cake, apple tarts, apricot bread pudding etc.

So come on by and get a piece of the best desserts you have EVER had. No kidding. I've been eating them all week.

The fires I spoke about last have all been put out. However, today, there is a new fire very close to us in Norwood which is about 30 miles away by road, much closer by air. It started as a small fire and now has gotten rather large. Our main concern here is that many people that we know live in the Norwood and Redvale area. Unfortunately due to high winds, the fire can not be fought today - so it grows larger. I am now looking out my office window and can barely see the mountains due to smoke.

The chances of this coming into Telluride is slim and all access to us is very much open. The smoke is only so thick to obscure parts of the view, but is not impeding us in any other way.
