BONEDALE is the name of the annual bike to work week in the town on Carbondale, Colorado:
A Possible BONEDALE logo?
I thought that this logo would be sold on a T-shirt somewhere in town but I didn’t see one. Oh well, we might as well take in some music:
At Steve’s Guitars
Usually there is live music on Friday night at Steve’s Guitars of Carbondale. On this Wednesday there was a group of folksingers doing their thing; We just happened to be there at the right time.
And then near the old Carbondale jail:
Some goofy left-handed banjo player
At the Carbondale PAC3
On another evening, Junior Brown was in town to play his “Guit-steel” double necked guitar at the Performing Arts Center on third street (PAC3) . The PAC3 is a great venue to experience live music in a casual setting. It’s why we made the trip to Carbondale in the first place. Our concert seats were comfy couches about 15 feet from the stage.
Sharing the couches with us:
Two Carbondale celebrities Shawnna and Debbie. Just like us, fans of Junior Brown.
The Coke ovens Basalt
The town of Basalt is about 10 miles north of Carbondale. These ovens were built around 1880 and were used for smelting coke for about 5 years until someone discovered coal near Aspen.
Avalanche ranch
We’ve been to the hot springs pool in Glenwood Springs before, but there are at least two hot springs locations near Carbondale that offer a more natural setting.

BONEDALE: Carbondale without cars! Get it?
