It was sunny, a little rainy and nice and comfortable outside. At one point Lori said it was cold! Perfect mountain weather. No smoke to be seen and we have a hard time telling where the fire is even though they say it’ll take until August to burn out. Ty went back to Preston’s and Jag hung out. Lori and I went to one the doctor’s from the clinic annual crawfish boil. I think he’s from Louisiana and they flew in 200 pounds of live crawfish and brought in a few kegs of beer. There was all kinds of other food too. Lori knew some people and I a few. We didn’t stay too long, maybe an hour. After we left Dr. B and his wife Molly texted saying they just arrived. Too bad we missed them but they’re coming over this afternoon for enchilada’s.
My buddy Steve is closing Falling Rock Brewery in Denver today. It’s a Denver institution across from Coors Field that is wrapping things up due to years of construction screwing with Blake Street and covid. Hard to believe it. Not sure what he and his brother who own it will now do. I spent some fun times there over the years.
We might go to the farmers market in Vail today. It’s a good one and is every Sunday in the summer. Only three days left in the first half of the year. Soon it’ll be kids back to school, Fall weather and hunting season, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Oh yea, Ty will be driving on his own in a few months too and the dreaded snow! Time goes fast, never stops!
We looked at Hawaii tickets last night and it’ll still cost $5k even though we have a free house and car. I’d like to take a family road trip up through Wyoming to Montana too. My buddy says we have to go to the Custer battlefield outside of Billings. He said it’s so eerie and you get this mystical feeling from all the history there. Lori went in 1994 but the boys and I have never been. We’ll see as we’re getting Dixie out here too. Lori yesterday said we should bring her out on the train! That’s a great idea as it’d be fun for her. They have these sleeper cars with private bathrooms and showers and an attendant. We’re looking into that. Kristin is there now with Dixie for about 5 days. Time for some changes.
That’s it, time to get this party started. Perfect weather for the week ahead. God Bless.
