I make the ice cream and the wheat, sourdough and potato rolls from scratch. The hot sandwiches are my own creation. We want our store and food to be unique and different from what you are going to find somewhere else. People refer to it as an oasis. We believe in offering quality at reasonable prices. We try to open up around May 1 and close the end of October. Occasionally we’ve been open the first week or two in November,” Leona added.Leona was the manager at the Colorado Welcome Center in Dinosaur for eight years, but quit in 2006 to concentrate on her business.Robert and Leona have two daughters.

We also keep busy with our horses, llamas, goats, chickens, geese, dogs and a 30-year old parrot,” said Leona.Leona likes “the openness of area. It always struck me that there was something special about the area and Dinosaur National Monument. I’m not a city person. I enjoy having my space and like being able to grow a garden.”
