Congratulations Ian and Andrea!

Back in January when we posted about our quick trip to Chicago, did it seem like the posts were a little dry? A little devoid of some kind of exciting thing that might just have happened while we were there? Sure, there was delicious food, fun relaxing time with the family, an outing that involved all plaid.

We’re only a few days into the new year and we already have a ton of updates, including a trip to Chicago, to post on here but first we need to bid an overdue and very fond farewell to 2012! Javi and I had a pretty spectacular 2012, so we figured we should give the year its […]

(check out Leslie’s new band Hickory Slims on facebook!) Long long ago (…2005) in a land flowing with whiskey and bluegrass harmonies, the band known as Angus Whyte and the Irish Rednecks worked tirelessly to entertain the masses with their cheeky antics and wildly entertaining tunes. Over the years band members came and went, but […]

Climbing our first fourteener – Mt. Princeton

20120826-231719.jpg

On the Saturday before we left Colorado, Javier and I climbed a mountain. Not just any old mountain – we climbed Mt. Princeton, a 14,000 ft (aka fourteener) mountain that stands among the collegiate peaks, including Mt. Yale, Mt. Columbia and Mt. Harvard, among others. This was a beast of a mountain, and the first […]

Hiking Around Buena Vista

When Javi and I didn’t have anything planned during our stay in Buena Vista we went hiking on different trails. Our friend Jen recommended Angel Falls and our B&B host Connie told us to check out Cottonwood Pass, so we decided to take them both up on their suggestions. In between horseback riding and the […]

Before we left for Colorado, we made a few specific plans for things we absolutely had to do while we were here. I especially wanted to go horseback riding, so Javi did some research online and found Harvard City Riding Stables. It’s about a 15 minute drive from Liar’s Lodge and they do 1 hour, […]

Visiting Leadville, CO

On day 1 of our belated honeymoon, Javi and I woke up at 7:30 and had coffee and a homemade breakfast that our B&B host Connie prepared. One of the items in the breakfast buffet was a warm loaf of craisin applesauce bread that I instantly fell in love with. It seemed homemade so I […]
