It is time for another clue to our Mystery artist at the museum. This artist and most of the characters in our mystery have something in common.

We had such a great day yesterday. A Big Thank You to all who helped us have a successful event. The Southeast Colorado CattleWomen for donating the beef and Brand napkins. Leon Davis for his Fife playing of old tunes and the Lazy M ChuckWagon of Lamar, and the whole crew. It was an awesome meal. Kevin Hall for entertaining us with singing and guitar. I know I am missing someone but I will catch up eventually
