The kids are with their grandparents in Durango, and Andrew and I are staying in Ridgway for his best friend's wedding. The wedding party and some of the guests are camping at the wedding site all weekend. Andrew and I enjoy camping, but we worried there would be a lot of drinking and such going on all weekend. Andrew's sober, so we decided to stay at a hotel instead. It will allow us to have some couple time, which is a rare thing these days, while also avoiding the party scene.

Montrose. Your stoplights. Shit. I think you must just put them in for fun. And rig them all to turn red as white, mud-speckled out-of-state Tacomas are approaching. You are depressing and the lights are not helping me get the hell out of you!Three. Looks like my truck CD player decided to die. Won't play the CD that is currently in its belly, but refuses to relinquish said CD. I may be at the mercy of western po-dunk town radio for a while.Four. Colorado Boy brewery is closed today. The growler I have been holding on to for two years since I ... read more
