Good ol’ Saturday Night racin’ at Colorado National Speedway! This was my first visit to CNS even though I have lived only a few miles from the track for the past 5 years. It is visible from the Interstate and each time I passed by I told myself, “this Saturday...
Last night I attended my first concert in… longer then I am willing to admit. Even though I bought two tickets (in hopes of finding a date) I ended up selling the extra ticket, which paid for the night’s parking in downtown Denver on a Friday. I got to see...
Today, in a desperate attempt to do something other than sit around behind a computer all day, I drove into Boulder to revisit Pearl Street Mall. My first, and only, visit to Pearl Street a few years back left me with a bad taste in my mouth. It seems to...

I arrived in the greater Phoenix area on Friday and, once again, dropped in to hang out with my Sister for a few days. Today, after my normal work load, we both went to visit the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium in Litchfield Park, AZ. I’d like to say how...

At the Titan Missile Museum, near Tucson, Arizona, visitors journey through time to stand on the front line of the Cold War. This preserved Titan II missile site, officially known as complex 571-7, is all that remains of the 54 Titan II missile sites that were on alert across the...
