Saturday evening at approximately 8pm my BFF, Mrs. Jennifer Jacobowitz, arrived on the Denver scene. A little colder of a scene than she was expecting, but none the less, the Denver scene.  Now, I realize my sister and Wendi were here previously, but this was my first visitor post settling.  I had to venture out… Continue reading My First Official Visitor

  Saturday morning I met Kathryn out at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre for some seat lifting exercise.  And that it was.  I had never been to Red Rocks, but it did not disappoint.  The rock formations are gorgeous and, of course, perfectly shaped for an amazingly beautiful venue. The seating are wood benches built into… Continue reading The Red Rocks Introduction

Let me just say, I LOVE GETTING MAIL!  Always have.  I love going to the mail box, the unknown of what waits for you in that little box.  Anyone from anywhere could have sent you anything.  Who was thinking of you, when will the sweater you ordered arrive, birthday cards, catalogs….love it! Since I have… Continue reading Getting Mail, Love Notes and the Importance of Support

My week in review.  This week my goal was to get out and about and start getting to know my new city and meeting people. Monday night I met my friend Kathryn for dinner. Kathryn and I used to work together in Richmond and she moved to Denver about a year and a half ago… Continue reading Getting Out and About

This post will just catch you up on my first week as a Denverite.  What did I do last week, how was the weather last weekend, blah blah, etc. So my sister leaves…enter  water works.  All day.   We had spent 5 straight days together and now she was leaving and I was alone in… Continue reading Let’s Catch Up

See….a sea. There were more than that, I am pretty sure.  They just kept bringing stuff in.  It was so much.  Overwhelming really!  Enter super sister, Katie Schwartz. Katie dove right in and started unpacking, organizing, and even convinced me to get rid of stuff.  She was amazing!!!  A rock…my rock.  I could never have… Continue reading A Sea of Boxes

I apologize for the lack of blogging this week.  Let me ask you all a question.  When was the last time you went a full 7 days without cable or internet in your home?  And you work from home.  Well, it’s challenging….take it from me.  But as of yesterday, I am back online!!! Let’s see…where… Continue reading Back Online

We arrived in Denver yesterday and it was a sunny, 72 degree day! We got into the apartment and quickly realized that, with no kitchenware, we needed to head out in search of food….and maybe beer.  Well, probably beer.  There is a restaurant with rooftop seating just down the block, Whisky Tango Foxtrot.  It fit… Continue reading Honey, I’m home!!

We woke up ready to hit the road…even Minnie!! So we took a kickoff shot (photo) and hit the road!!! The drive was long today.  Kansas is tough.  We were both feeling it so the trek was shorter today.  We have set up camp in Colby, KS for the night and hope to get into… Continue reading Day 2

Today was a good day of driving.  Really rainy, but otherwise uneventful.  And Minnie is doing great!  We made it to St Louis, MO and have about 12 hours left.  Tried to eat locally on the way out and both were a bit of a failure…tomorrow we hope to do better.  Thanks for the screw… Continue reading Half Way!!
