Strange times...
Colorado Mountain College’s Vet Tech program hosted its annual open house at the farm near the Spring Valley campus on Saturday, Oct. 26. The Halloween-themed event featured cows, pigs, goats, llamas, horses and other critters in costume, along with costumed humans including Amy McLaren (left) with Lulu and Kerri Pirzadeh with Darrel. There was a “spooky scavenger hunt” and plenty of treats for humans and animals alike. Photo by Jane Bachrach

ell folks, this is it. By the time another Sopris Sun rolls out, we’ll have a better sense of whatever strange future lies ahead.
Of course, no matter what, our community will lean in and support one another, making the most of every scenario with sincerity and play.
May the Halloween/Samhain/Día de Muertos vibes remind us there’s more to life than what meets the eyes. Beneath the veil exists a magic animating all of life, including death. From one cycle to the next, we are all connected to everything that ever is. From our hearts to yours, we wish you a safe and potent week of cheer and introspection.
