Boulder

Well, it's been a good trip out west again. Tonight we play the Boulder Theater with local band Meniskus and another band I can't remember what they're called. Should be dining at the Buff restaurant here shortly as well. For those of you not familiar with the Buff, it's by far the best breakfast/brunch place in Boulder. For that matter, I have yet to find a better place in the US, albeit with my mostly limited travels. Check it out here. The menu is fantastic and the service just the same.

Spent some time this week staying with a couple friends. The trade-off was I got to help paint a bedroom and waterproof a recently constructed fence in their backyard. They don't live too far from Pearl St.. It's about a 20 minute walk maybe. Ate at a few places along Pearl that I've not eaten at before, and had a few beers on a couple of the rooftop bars that provide a killer view of the Rockies. We attempted a game of 2-on-2 basketball at a park just down the road. When the press reports how lethargic and out of shape Americans are...we proved their point. We had to take a water break in between shooting around and shooting to see what the teams would be. Is that bad or what? Needless to say, many waterbreaks later and tons of lung biscuits later, the game reached it's end. And to make good on our recent athletic outings, we followed it up with a large New York-style pizza for dinner. Man was it tasty! More to come....
