Birthday season rolls on this fall, with Mrs. Roth’s turn on Friday. Spent the evening in downtown, surrounded by those that love her so much. Thanks to Than and Ruthie for taking her out to lunch. Thank you all for all the folks who called, texted and sent messages of love and support. It was a fun night attending Matt’s book release, singing along to the band, and closing the night at the speak easy. Noah is on deck!
Or at least a sunrise. Pays to get up and start moving the body at 530. Also the incessant pawing from Bella can be a strong encouragement. A few bonus pictures of a much needed night on the back patio.
It was a very woman-focused Saturday, attending the grand opening/mural reveal at A Woman’s Place, followed by the SAVA Soriee. Bumped into Uncle Steve’s friend from college, Tom Bourbor. Fun table at the gala, great food, and a very worthy cause. Sadly, might be the last gala with ALLO for the foreseeable future, as the direction of the company is changing and will be less focused on attending events and building the brand, and highly focused on sales driven activity and community activations. Knocked off our morning walks, as the season is finally changing. Just made a concert in time to count towards October: David Rosales at the record store downtown. Whew, that was close to snapping the streak. Also a little history from the Dave Matthews Band and the show Jen and I were at in Broomfield to support flood relief.
But where there are clouds, it will always be followed by sunshine and maybe even a rainbow. The clouds were above the luau in Hawaii in June. More recent cloudy weather was the past two weeks. Some sunshine has emerged though, with several community events, some family time, and some birthday cake and candles.
A few quick happy birthday wishes from the Blog Father and the entire crew that keeps the Campingdad Blog up and running behind the scenes. Today we celebrate Little Andrew’s 26th birthday. Last week we celebrated Ruthie’s 24th. Happiest of birthdays to each of you. We love you both so much. Blessings to each of you in the year ahead!
It’s basketball season! Attended the Roundball Rollcall scrimmage and dinner with the UNC Men’s basketball team. We have the pre-season Big Sky MVP, and are picked second. First game November 2. Can’t wait. Squeezed in a few other events throughout the week, including the ribbon cutting for both the new admin building for District 6 (hi Sean!) and the new emergency room at UCHealth hospital that Bella and I have been keeping an eye on the past 7 months on our morning walks. Great feature and picture from Congressman Evans in his newsletter. DDA board meeting (where you at, Matt??). Spent an afternoon supporting ALLO at the KFKA VS. The Sponsors at the Back 9 (Sponsors lost). I did get to go live on the Hull Show with”Lunchtime Wonderments” segment, which was fun.
