(The ICE riots should send a chill down every American’s spine) - Because the riots we’re seeing in California, and if I can predict the future (as this column’s deadline comes before the scheduled Saturday, June 14th, 2025, riots), coming to a town near you, are but a symptom (and warning) about our limited form of government that no longer knows any limits. It’s like these folks get elected and think they can do whatever they want with the power and money that comes with their new position to force their agenda down the throats of the citizenry and not have any consequences for doing so. And this may come as a […] Read the full article: https://is.gd/HYTHYO

(Third Bowl Ice Cream opens in Grand Junction) - Tim Harty, The Business Times As of its June 9 soft opening, Third Bowl Homemade Ice Cream is serving super premium ice cream – 16 flavors, including four dairy-free – in Grand Junction at 1059 North Ave. That likely begs the question: What is super premium? Third Bowl owner and self-professed food-science nerd Kendall Phillips can explain. “The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) regulates ice cream, because it’s a dairy product, and there are different categories,” she said. “There’s what’s called ice cream, and then there’s premium ice cream, and then what we make is super premium ice cream.” […] Read the full article: https://is.gd/IBlh1T

(Forging luxury and legacy: Grand Junction’s MacLeod Lux provides handcrafted luxury blacksmithing) - Tim Harty, The Business Times Spend an hour with Corbin MacLeod, and be prepared to walk away impressed. Because he makes an impression. Ask him a simple question, and be prepared for a complex answer that could veer into family, philosophy and faith. He’ll talk about soul and connection, brotherhood, community and charity. MacLeod is 20 years old, and of all things he’s a blacksmith. Not the kind that showed up in Old West cowboy movies making horseshoes or farm implements and repairing wagon wheels. Rather, he’s a modern-day, metal-working artist who started his own business, MacLeod Lux, in mid-April […] Read the full article: https://is.gd/HFLb9Z

(If you relocate, they will come: Jennies Playhouse & Jump Zone reopened in a new location after 15 months away) - Tim Harty, The Business Times Jennifer Montoya’s excitement to finally reopen her children’s playhouse in Grand Junction, which she did on May 24 with Jennies Playhouse & Jump Zone, was tempered by an equal and opposite emotion: fear. Montoya said it had been 15 months since she had to close her business inside Mesa Mall in February 2024, because the mall’s corporate owners decided the space where Jennies Playhouse resided for nearly five years would be better served by a retail store, Five Below. And the road back was much longer than expected and filled with setbacks and frustration, which […] Read the full article: https://is.gd/AI78yd
