Festival Summer in Telluride
It’s hard to leave Aspen. Which must explain why in the three summers I’ve spent in Aspen, I’ve never made it to Telluride. However, nestled in the very-different-from-the-Rockies San Juan Mountains, Telluride (elevation: 8,750 ft.) lies in a box canyon, surrounded on three sides by 14,000-foot peaks, which makes for something awesome. Plus it connects to…
Conversations from Aspen Ideas Fest
I love that living in Aspen allows me to attend Ideas Fest sessions that I wouldn’t normally get the pleasure of joining (see past recaps here and here). This year, I attended two distinct but related panels, so I will discuss them together. The details: Entrepreneurship 2012 with Michael Lopp, Kevin Delaney, Joe Muscat, Daniel Epstein, and…
Aspen: Da Bears
I saw my first bear this summer, but thankfully I was on horseback. With summer hiking on the brain, it’s time to refresh our wild animal encounter skills in case you run into a bear without your trusty steed—and by steed, I could mean pistol, if you’re into that sort of thing (and I am,…

Best. Dog. Ever.
Denali and I have a biking routine that wears her out quick for days when I’m not going to be home as much to take her out. She loves the Roaring Fork River beach more than anything, except Wild Alaskan Salmon treats from Costco. And me. Best dog ever.

Spicy Summer Cocktails
No, I haven’t already this summer gone through an entire handle of tequila infused with jalapenos for making spicy ‘ritas—yet! I have been brining the heat to Aspen, so to speak (we’re experiencing a way-early summer anyway regardless of my cocktail-making), but I’m always looking for more spicy-delicious cocktails. Just in time for Memorial Day,…
