Rex Ray
Caught a doc on artist/designer Rex Ray on PBS last night (produced by a Denverite so might have been local-only). Interesting story mostly for his practical approach to making and selling art.

Escape to Joshua Tree
Found this house available for rent on a nice site called airbnb that is similar to VRBO but in a much nicer web site package. It offers some really unique properties – night in a castle anyone? including this black modern gem near Joshua Tree.
