Weekend Recap: Superbowl Sunday in Vail

Prima_Vail_Bluebird_Day

This weekend wasn’t quite as restful as it probably should have been – but I packed a lot into another weekend in the mountains! I got home from Atlanta late on Thursday night, and tried to pack up a bit so I’d have an easier time getting out on Friday morning. On Friday, I took a few calls from home, then a few from the road as I drove out to Minturn, stopping to grab a sandwich on the way. I finally got to my house around 2:30pm (in the middle of another call), and then spent the rest of …

Weekend Recap: Beaver Creek Culinary Weekend

Heather_Kirk_Laura_Trappers_Cabin_Sunset

This weekend was much better than the last – it was packed! And full of food, wine, and fun with friends 🙂 I got home reasonably early on Thursday from a trip to New York… and was on the same flight as my friend Sara! It was fun to catch up walking through Denver Airport when we landed, and we ended up making plans to meet up on Friday for lunch and to catch up further. On Friday, I knocked out a bunch of work, then drove out to Breckenridge to meet Sara for a late lunch. Crepes… mmm! After …

Weekend Recap: Vail “Meet in the Mountains”

Laura_in_Ouzo_Glade

It was another busy week at work, and my day on Friday was a bit crazy. I ended with an event at the office that went until 5pm… which was a lot of fun, but meant that I was leaving downtown Denver at peak rush hour! Not ideal for getting out to the mountains, unfortunately 🙁 To my surprise, though, traffic wasn’t too bad. I only lost about 20 minutes from the no-traffic drive time, and made it to Silverthorne without any frustration. After a quick stop there to drop off some stuff at a friend’s house, I was back on …

Vacation Recap: Winter Break, Week 2

The_Rose_2020_New_Years

I left Albany on Christmas Eve, expecting to be home by 6pm. Unfortunately, United had other plans for me 🙁 My original flight from Albany to Chicago was several hours delayed, which pushed me to a later connecting flight as well. I didn’t end up landing until 8pm, and rushed home to drop my stuff off and change, then headed downtown for a wine date at Barcelona. Nice cozy way to close out Christmas Eve and put all the travel stress behind me! On Christmas morning, I woke up early to throw some things in the car, then headed for …

Weekend Recap: Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Santacon, and Monet

Monet_Geese

Recap of November 27 to December 1 This was a lovely long weekend from Thanksgiving Thursday to Sunday! And my mom was with me in Colorado the whole time, which made me really happy. I’m working on convincing her to move, and I think it’s starting to work, as she periodically sends me houses on Zillow she’s looking at 🙂 Speaking of houses, to start Thanksgiving extra thankful, Mom and I headed up to the mountains after I finished work on Wednesday. I haven’t been up there in more than 2.5 months (since my calf injury, because I couldn’t trail …
