Art, culture, travel and adventure in Northern Colorado.
In the words of John Oliver, “Just time for a quick recap of the week.” The day after Dan and I left Vail we turned on our heels and headed to Cincinnati for a half-business-half-pleasure visit. The two of us did not stop moving for three days! Below are a few highlights of our whirlwind […]

A friend texted me to ask how my trip to Vail was. I sent her the picture above and said you’d have to ask Dan — Vail was mostly a working trip for me, with an extremely fun concert and a goat yoga session thrown in. For the real fun, you’d want to look at […]

When Dan and I first visited Vail in June, I posted pictures (shocker!). My friend Isaac, who works for the New York Philharmonic, commented to tell me that the orchestra would be performing in Vail in July as part of the town’s Bravo! Vail programming. That was all I needed to hear. Dan and I […]

Nirvamlet, a theatrical event by Boulder-based Band of Toughs, twists Shakespeare’s classic by casting Hamlet as the son of 90s grunge legends Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. Over the course of an evening you can meet Hamlet’s entire cast of characters, though they may be sporting more […]

It basically goes without saying that anywhere you find yourself in Colorado, you’re a mile from a brewery. When Linda, Tony and I found ourselves in Windsor for a bike tour, Linda suggested a detour to High Hops. I don’t drink beer myself — just don’t have a taste for it — but man have […]

In Colorado, water is king. There are countless coalitions, clubs and events meant to protect our precious water and educate the public about its importance. It’s truly incredible. One such organization is the (deep breath) Cache de Poudre River National Heritage Area, and the Poudre Heritage Alliance (PHA) which serves it. A few times per […]
