Riders of the Purple Sage

It was with great excitement that I went with JhonDuane to the Brinton Museum this fall, for the opening of a wonderful show in which he had jewelry– The 4th Annual Brinton Small Works Show. What a wonderful show, and a gorgeous venue! The newly remodeled Brinton Museum is a sparkling jewel of a building, set in the home acreage of the Quarter Circle A Ranch, with the surrounding Big Horn Mountain range as a stunning backdrop.

The building itself is rammed earth, which gives it a most interesting texture and character, as well as being environmentally friendly. The architecture seeks to blend with its surrounding. It does this well. The surrounding old ranch buildings and lovely landscaping, give the place a homey and authentic feel.

Not only was the gala art opening spectacular, but the journey both before, visiting Fort Phil Kearny, and afterward- into the deep and mysterious Big Horns, were–– unforgettable!
