Telluride Film Festival "Show"

05 Sep Telluride Film Festival "Show"

 I ran across this copy of a painting by old-time local Birdi Boyd of the Sheridan Opera House – before it was "renovated" – and was stunned by the memories it invoked. How quaint and quiet Telluride was in "back in the day." The streets were deserted, the restaurants were few and the bars were the living rooms for locals – young and old. Bill and Stella Pence's fledgling Telluride Film Festival followed quickly on the heels of southwestern Colorado's newest and most magnificently beautiful – but most difficult to get to – ski area, and soon became – just like the ski area – legendary well before its time.

To the young and old, first-timers and long-timers, have a fabulous TFF. Thanks for the memories…
