Frankcanfly happened to be coming through Colorado Springs and wondered if we might be able to meet up. "Of course!" was my immediate reaction and we went from there. The Springs was hosting an Inaugural Summit Brew Fest & BBQ, so in an attempt to be a polite hostess asked Frank if …

Their title; not mine...Apparently the Springs hosts a hot-air balloon festival each Labor Day Weekend and has done so for the past 32 years. I happened to be out with the dogs when I noticed the balloons in the air over town. There were 20 or so of them in the air which sent me straigh…

11. Farmers: Hooray for fresh sustenance!!! On Saturday mornings in Old Colorado City (the historic division and my neighborhood) the Farmers' Market is bustling with the young and the old looking for garden grandeur. My absolute favorite part is the smell of roasting chili…

This is not a "Travel Blog" but more like a "Custom's Blog", so don't go looking for your next vacation hot spot in these lines...but if you're not doing anything and it hasn't already passed for you, you might consider stepping outside. I began typing to Eva and that got the gears going about the…

Thursday Night. 10 PM. Black Dress Night. We start at Southside Johnny's, a biker bar at the end of Tejon and work our way up from there. Arch Hooks is playing so we hit the dance floor. After a round of horridly sweet shots...lemon drops...I opt for a crispe…

This entry is not to show off my circumlocution...just the fact that I turned the dial and set the camera to M to discover the world of F stops and shutter speeds. so I guess the light meter does come in handy...

Last night was a pretty crazy time here in the States but it was nothing compared to the things I would talk about with my 8 year old students this morning. Out of the mouths of babes: "Why would anybody want to elect a 'baby-killer'?" "Now my parents will have to move to a smalle…

I tried to find the coldest photos I have for this little posting and some of the activities that I like to busy myself with when the mercury drops.
On the really bad days, they like to close highways and interstates...something that took me by surprise the first time I witnessed it. …

Yep. I was sure there was nothing left to see after our slush storm on Wednesday, but Mother Nature proved me wrong yet again. Our buddy Steve is constantly bugging us to get up and outside. Being the fair-weather girl that I am, I only grudgingly consent maybe a 10th of the …
