Way back in February while boondocking outside of Ajo, Arizona Kerri and I ate dinner at the 100 Estrella Restaurant (pretty much the only restaurant in Ajo worthy of more than a single star). There, along with our food, she ordered a “Nitro” Milk Stout from the bar which went...
There was a time when I would mow a lawn each week, grab my $7 payment and ride my BMX bike to the nearest arcade and blow every last hard earned quarter on Galaga or Space Invaders. Over the years, my tastes developed to include pinball. In my late teens...
Still Cellars is a distillery housed in an off-beat industrial area of Longmont, Colorado. Longmont is not even a very hip place, so when suggested to me by a blog reader(thank you Janel!) I took advantage to setup an evening out at Still Cellars. Considering how much Kerri enjoys her...
On a recent trip back from Lyons, CO where we enjoyed a cool brew at Oscar Blues Brewery, I turned Kerri to a particular road where I saw a nesting pair of Bald Eagles a few years back. As luck would have it, one was there so we pulled out...
On Monday, we took the afternoon to tour the East side of the Rocky Mountain National Park. Kerri has never visited the park so it was top priority for a day-off activity. We waited for a weekday to have less of a crowd, but it may have been overkill since...

In 1998, the park underwent...
Rifle Pond is located near the Rest Area along Interstate 70 in Rifle, Colorado. The pond is a gravel pit that was created in the early 70’s when the interstate was being built. Before that time there was a large open area here where they held the annual Easter egg...
Conor, Moose, and myself spent our Sunday hiking in the National Forest on the North Fork Trail. Conor and I have hiked here in the past, but the trail was mostly wiped out during the 2013 floods. Conor heard it had reopened so we set out to explore the meadow...
Golden Gate Canyon State Park has been on my todo list for some years now, yet because of it’s proximity it all too often got pushed to the “next week” list, but this weekend I can finally add this notch to my belt. Honestly, for the life of me I...
