Lyons, CO is a quarry town nestled in the Rocky Mts, founded in 1881. This is the story of the Town of Lyons, with an emphasis on its sandstone quarry industry. The town is famous world-wide for its unique red sandstone, that is also considered the hardest in the world. Learn about the origin of the rock, about the stonemasons and quarry owners and workers, See the quarries and the buildings from 1880s to today. What did it take to run a quarry in the old West? The main quarry was considered the largest in the SW. Includes interviews of local people telling the tales of their ancestors who settled the area… introducing quarrying, and promoting the industry. From farmers in 1865 to quarrymen in 1885, and continuing to today, with the rock being shipped worldwide. *An example of just two of the families featured*The Loukonen family started out as immigrants working in the quarries. The first Loukonen built a hut of sandstone, bought supplies in town, and began working that day. They saved money and brought over their brothers and cousins and children. Today they own their own quarry and stone yard. The 4th generation is running it, including two women and two men. The Vasquez family started working in the quarries in the 1950s, with a similar family struggle. They lived in a trailer and refitted an old schoolbus. Today they are well-to-do quarry owners, giving back to their community with sandstone-related donations. Hear about the stonemasons, who take great pride in their work. See the walls, homes, fireplaces, tables and more that they built by hand, …with their dialogue on how they cut and chose the stones. Look inside their tool box, and learn about their tools. IMAGES: not only does it show the decedents of the founders of the town and quarries and businesses speaking, but it takes you into the quarries and shows you some of the current operations and the old buildings, like the blacksmith store and workers huts and boarding house. It includes close ups of photos that the people have in their home scrapbooks, and the local museum has accumulated — going back to 1880s, And a few articles. Includes an interview of the Curator of Geology at the Denver Nature and Science Museum, standing in a quarry, and pointing out features of the rocks (eg, raindrops, colors, structure) and showing graphics/maps of the millions of years and layers of stone.* Also includes an aerial view of the “hogback” of Lyons sandstone, from Carter Lake (Ft.Collins area) south to Lyons (including the town and local quarries)*=============================NOTE=== the stone is called Lyons sandstone officially (this is not just something the Lyons town people say) *NOTE=== TWO DVDS offered == to see the full Curator’s interview and the aerial view, purchase the “Lyons / Front Range Geology” DVD.
