On the 4th of July, my husband and I drove down to Westcliffe, CO. We just really love Westcliffe. When I go there I don’t worry, I’m really just in the moment. It’s funny because we don’t do anything big, but being in Westcliffe brings us joy. The drive is […]
In my last post about my family trip to Breckenridge I talked about the places we went to. In this post I thought I’d talk about our activities. My daughter and I went horseback riding in White River National forest. It was fun and so beautiful. We normally try to go […]
I enjoy traveling so much and I like to share my adventures. We try to take at least one big trip a year and since we love the mountains we go to Breckenridge Colorado the majority of the time. Mainly because we own a timeshare up there. The first picture […]
I think I’ve made it pretty clear I love Westcliffe. In fact, we try to go once a month. The last time we went it was pretty closed up because of the COVID. But when it opened up we decided it was time to take our daughter, Sky, for a […]
So we closed on our land in Westcliffe. It was amazing. We went to Westcliffe and set in lawn chairs and just listened to the wind and looked at the mountains. It was so serine, I’ve never felt such peace. We walked the land and found the boundaries. I even […]
I’m so excited, last month I wrote about going to Westcliffe Colorado and looking for a piece of land for us to build on when we retire. We went back this month to see where the surveyor marked the land (sadly he hadn’t been there yet) but we walked around […]
Just keeping you up today with my foray into cooking. I took my first class alone this month, crepes. I met a wonderful lady and we had a good time. We made both sweet and savory crepes the French way and it’s not as easy as you’d think. Hers were […]
I’m so excited, it’s official we will be closing on 5 acres of land in Westcliffe, Colorado at the end of next month. Here are some pictures of the land. Isn’t the view stunning? Right now we live in Colorado Springs, however it’s getting so crowded and the crime. it’s […]
In my last blog I wrote about my good friend Iris leaving Colorado Springs. Well we spent the day together in Manitou Springs last week. What a blast we had. It was a beautiful day (close to 70 degrees – yes in February) in Colorado! Manitou Springs is a small […]
Warning, This is a very personal Blog. Iris, one of my dear friends is moving to Texas. Iris and I’ve been friends for over 14 years. We served together at Peterson AFB and even though we both retired from the Air Force we remained good friends. Iris has been such […]
I had another business trip to Rhode Island this January. I really enjoy Newport and the Naval War College is so fascinating. Of course I worked 10-12 hr shifts so I didn’t have anytime to write my newsletter or anything glass related. In fact I took these 2 pictures on […]
Another cooking class at the French Kitchen. Dan and I took a fantastic cooking class recently. I just can’t get enough of these cooking classes. This one was with Kristie of course. I’m so going to miss her, this was my last class with her. It was a fix and […]
In my last blog I wrote about our trip to Steamboat Springs. How we went to the hot springs and snowmobiling. So much fun. We also took the gondola up to the top of the ski runs (no I don’t ski anymore). Something I didn’t know about Steamboat is it […]
I love to travel, not just overseas but here in Colorado as well. Last year my husband and I made a commitment to spend more time together. We had a blast last year, so we made the same commitment this year. Our first trip of the year was to Steamboat […]
