I just listed one of Gunnison’s most historic and iconic buildingsand it has brought back so many memories from my childhood! The Miller Furniture building has been a part of Gunnison since the early 1900’s but did you know that Miller Furniture started in Crested Butte in the 1890’s? It is one of Gunnison County’s longest family owned business in history! There have been variations of the business over the years but in the most recent few decades it has been a furniture store serving all of our furniture needs throughout Gunnison and Crested Butte. It will be the end of the family legacy but an incredible start for the future buyer. The opportunities are endless with what type of business could operate there. I am thinking a bowling alley and fun bar/restaurant would be really cool?! Keeping it a furniture store would be great too!

Gunnison has some amazing history and traditions. Check out this great video about Tough Enough to Wear Pink and the tradition of the Cattleman’s Day Rodeo. It was featured on the Cowboy Channel – RFD TV. I was watching it again last night and realized I am in it! Check out 1:51, I am riding the horse in the front! I worked at Harmel’s in 1998 and 1999 and we would bring the Wranglers down to ride in the Cattlemen’s Day Parade. Of course, that wasn’t my first time in the parade, I started riding my horses in the parade in 1991. Those pictures are locked in the archives though, just picture I decorated myself and my horse in a pink costume. The point of my story is that the traditions are alive and well in the Gunnison Valley.
