It enhanced my appreciation of her beautiful work and educated as well as inspired me. She took me around the gallery, and whenever I admired a piece, she told me a little bit about the Colorado artist. Her spirit of joy was contagious and I was uplifted by this experience in Green Horse Gallery.

We were greeted warmly by the proprietor, and then we all began to browse. Each space contained a staggering array of beautifully crafted pottery, jewelry, home decor and sculptures by local artisans. I especially enjoyed the paintings throughout, each displayed beautifully with a notation and background of each piece and it's artist. My sister-in-law selected a ring, and my daughter chose a lovely feather necklace. I'm looking forward to coming back here, this is a really neat co-op and a hidden gem. I guess we've passed it by since it's off the beaten path unlike many other ships located right on the Main Street running through town. But I'm so glad we discovered it!

It's hanging up in my kitchen in Madison right now. The other one we bought was of the Kissing Camels and the artist used materials that she found at Kissing Camels as part of the art. It's a really nice space and I hope to come back the next time I'm in Colorado.

The origins of the Outpost date back to the 1800s where a stock stable was operated. Unfortunately, the building burned down but the Navajo Geyser Pavilion Cafeteria soon rose from the ashes in 1913. Despite the restaurant being successful, the Hiawatha Tours and Navajo Garage would soon take over the building. The Barker Manufacturing Company would be the next business to move in. The company was known for its work with leather as well as selling western style clothing. Finally, in 2003 the Barker Manufacturing Company would be molded into the Outpost as it is today.

The store has three levels and large beach windows on both ends, only one side allows entrance. I had been looking for a Colorado enamel pin to add to my collection and with so much merchandise, this particular gift shop caught my eye. I was greeted by a nice woman when I entered. She was at the ice cream station that is located on the lowest level of the shop. She was friendly! The store has a lot to offer! They have a large variety of merchandise. There is coffee, birthstones, t-shirts, key chains, stuffed animals, post cards, etc. I found my enamel pin which was at the second level and I didn't bother looking at the third. From what I recall the third level had more house decor, the other two had souvenirs and smaller gifts. The store is well organized. For the amount of items they sell, they utilize their space very well. There is plenty of walking space and if there were to be a crowd, it wouldn't be a problem at all. I purchased my Colorado enamel pin which was $3 or so. It was simple and I'll have it with me forever! My shopping experience went very well and I went to three other gift shops, this one was the best one!
