Welcome!

Thanks to my other blogging friends and the extreme peer pressure to join the fray, I have started my Boulder Blog! Full of Colorado livin', Henry lovin' and, hopefully, time spent workin' I hope you enjoy!

I'll begin like Princess Alice: the things I have learned about Boulder:

1. Everyone LOVES the environment. While this does include loving nature, what I am talking about is protection of the environment to the point of using compost-able bags to pick up their dog poo.

2. Prius is the new yuppie car. Goodbye oversize SUVs! If you want to be a yuppie in Boulder, you must drive a Prius, preferably complete with an array of liberal bumper stickers.

3. Boulder weather is AMAZING! Just when it starts to get a little too toasty, it starts cooling down for the night. Plus, thunderstorms rolling in over the mountains make for great sunsets.

4. Everyone exercises. I will be out with Henry at noon and see people walking, hiking, biking, jogging, parasailing, rock climbing etc. When does everybody work?

5. Everything MUST be organic. Seriously. Someone in my condo complex puts carrots and lettuce out for the rabbits that live under the bushes but the rabbits won't eat the food. The standing joke is that the lettuce isn't organic so the Boulder rabbits won't eat it.

6. Last on the list is simply that I LOVE living here. Each day is fun and beautiful. And for those of you who were wondering, I have not grown dreadlocks, smoked pot or gotten a tattoo.
