Lyons Market

There is a fun new weekly event here in Lyons- an outdoor market. Last weekend was the first weekend, and Marin and I went to check it out after soccer. 

Marin had a daisy painted on her face by Heather's Happy Facepainting, and we wandered around checking out all the other action.

There was wine tasting in the old dynamite shack- get blasted indeed! Lyons is an old mining town, and the dynamite shack is actually exactly what its name implies. I didn't personally sample the wares, but was assured that Ciatano Winery's quality was excellent. Plus the fun of the location can't be beat.

If you are driving through Lyons on a summer saturday, or need something to do that's easy to get to from just about anywhere on the Northern Front Range, come check out the market. They have music, food and some fun vendors including fresh vegetables, baked goods, yummy food from The Giggling Greek, handmade guitars by Jonas Guitars and many handcrafts. More information is on the Lyons Outdoor Market website, including a complete list of vendors.
