    2020-10-12 Deno’s Mountain Bistro Steak-burger 4.0 🍔

    What’s the criteria for a 4.5 on a 5 point scale? A well seasoned patty cooked to perfection (which translates to cooked as requested by the person ordering it). A toasted bun is a must. Don’t skimp on the cheese. (Or sauce If that’s part of the deal.) Other toppings as desired, also prepared according…

    2020-10-11 Winter Park Getaway Day 2: Aclimation and Viewpoint

    I woke before the sun again today. 5AM I think. I’m afflicted with the inability to sleep.. in. I mean, I’ve been able to, in the early days of my life and in more recent years if I’ve taken something to help me sleep. But not now. And certainly not here, in a bed that…

    2020-10-10 Winter Park Getaway Day 1: It Can Be Whatever You Want

    I’m waking up on my second day here in Winter Park Colorado— before the sun and with a fairly healthy headache. It might be a hangover, you know, because at this altitude it only takes a few cocktails to affect a person. Despite reminding each other numerous times last night, we still did not alter…

    2020-10-09 Waking Up in Winter Park

    Yesterday was a loooonnnnng day. We did not get on the road until about 6PM as Jim had a full day of work in CB. They say Denver is a 7 hour drive from Omaha, but I believe that’s only possible if you 1) Have a serious fire behind you and 2) Aren’t afraid to…

    2020-10-08 Miss SugarCookie is On the Move!

    I woke up this morning with more vigor than I’ve had in a while. And when breakfast was over I bounded toward my treadmill with a little more spring in my step. The primary reason for this energy comes from the fact that today I’m going to be getting in my car for a weekend…

    2020-06-30 Take Back the City Tour: Day 15 Colorado Wrap Up

    We arrived home from our Colorado road trip late afternoon Sunday. It’s now Tuesday. That’s what happens. And.. if I don’t take the time To reflect reflected on our trip, it will start to slip away… At the very least, I’d like to capture the highlights so I don’t forget them. Pictures are worth a…

    2020-06-26 Take Back the City Tour: Day 12.944 – Enjoying the Moment

    Today is almost over. The more time my daughter and I spend alone together, the more we come to understand each other better. I mean, we live together but sometimes, we are too busy just getting through each day that we don’t even really talk and that’s a shame. Tonight she told me she was…

    2020-06-26 Take Back the City Tour: Day 12 – The Quest for Ben and Jerry’s

    My daughter and I have different styles for vacations and road trips. Or perhaps years of experience has shaped my style into being more rigid and regimented. At this juncture, I think it’s important to note that sometimes life is better when you let go of what you have learned and just accept the day…
