The last meal

I had a flashback this afternoon as I sat chatting to Cliff out back and Jamie joined us, they were in conversation and I suddenly thought of a photo Jamie sent to me on arriving at her parents home for a Friday night BBQ. When I mentioned it she said oh yeh remember Dad when […]

Breckenridge

A couple of months ago Jamie booked an Airbnb in Breckenridge to coincide with her moms and my birthday and it seemed so far off but all of a sudden we were in the car driving into the mountains. At this point I must mention the sheer panic at McDonald’s when Jamie lost her phone, […]

10th April 2023

My mother-in-law & me share a birthday & today is the first time we have been on the same continent to celebrate together. As birthdays go this was amazing, $2m house with a view that’s priceless, some great food later all washed down with red wine! It was hard to blog on the day because […]

10th Revisited

Mile High Stadium

As days go, this was one of the best we did the tour of Mile High Stadium and got to go on to the field which was a dream come true! Yep the tour was great but to get to run about on the field for 10 minutes and take it all in was incredible […]

Dove Valley

“You have to have a passion!” On my bucket list for this trip was Dove Valley, even though I didn’t know if there was even a tour or anything to see. After a slow start, we lay on the bed and decided if we go now, the Broncos training facility was doable before the Jefferson […]

Snow in Denver

April is a month where the weather can change frequently, “if you don’t like the weather in Colorado just wait 20 minutes” is never more true than springtime here in Denver. We had been warned about a storm while in Wyoming but got back yesterday to a glorious evening. We woke up to snow this […]
