Pad Thai One On

Sheri and I went on a little adventure tonight. We went to Old Town Littleton to have dinner and do a bit of shopping. I also found a Thai restaurant called Wild Ginger to try out. I’m not a huge fan of Thai food (too much coconut) but there’s always something I can try. Sheri loves…

Fallin’

Autumn is definitely here in Colorado. It’s getting nice and cool at night, but still hitting the 70s during the day. A perfect mix. We haven’t had our first snow yet, but I expect it will be here within a couple of weeks. In the meantime, I plan to take advantage of things the way they…

Porch time

The smell of rain is truly glorious, sitting on a covered porch, mid 60s temperature, reading a good book. I just know I will sleep like a log tonight.

Another night in Colorado

On my porch in Colorado, sipping a drink made with Colorado Bourbon and Colorado Bitters (as well as some sweet vermouth, Angostura Bitters and cherries), listening to a Colorado bird sing a Colorado bird song, reading a good book on my iPad, sitting in a comfy chair, a cool breeze accenting it all. Not a bad way…

Colds and Hot Toddies

Well darn it all. I finished the last of my Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey tonight. But it was for a good cause. I’ve had a cold the past few days and nothing helps that out better than some nice herbal tea (peach in this case) a good dash of honey, some lemon juice, and a double…

But if you want to step it up, there are hundreds of great choices all produced in Colorado. I’m still in discovery…

Bunny having a snack

A Colorado moment of “squee”! There are rabbits all over We’ve seen a dozen or more going for a walk around the complex. We saw this guy having a snack near the mailbox. It’s shot through my car window, so it’s very soft and not the best quality. But he’s too cute to not post

Beers to ya!

I like beer. In fact, it’s my preferred adult beverage of choice these days. Sure, I enjoy all sorts of hard liquor and the occasional glass of wine, but beer is my go-to beverage. I’m also picky about my beer. Life is far too short to drink the crappy beer. Sure, I’ll have a Corona…

Tube Stakes

Sheri and I moved to Colorado eight months ago and have done a handful of fun “Colorado” things, but we had not participated in any winter activities until today. We went to the Keystone Ski Resort to do some tubing. I haven’t been tubing on snow in, well, forever. A good friend had suggested doing…
