Boulderites

Last week, Helen and I visited SRC and JRQ in Boulder.  We had a blast!  We also learned that those who live in Boulder are called Boulderites.  We were dazzled and awestruck by the style, class and location of the Boulderites' new apartment.

It is contemporary and sleek yet cozy and warm.

Located on very hip Pearl Street; it is only a few blocks from historic and funky Downtown Boulder, a mere 8 blocks from the chic and trendy Twenty Ninth Street Shops and easy walking distance to the University of Colorado campus.  Wednesday night we visited the campus to attend the CU-KU men's basketball game.

KU won, but barely.

Tony (a Denverite) joined us for the game.

Thursday night we drove to Denver and had dinner with Amanda and Britt.  Here is Uncle Sam, little Kate, Amanda and Britt.  Fun people, those Denverites.

Amanda and Helen have a very special friendship and it was fun to see them reunited.

Friday night Tony, JRQ and I enjoyed Avatar in IMAX 3D while the women-folk did, well ... whatever they did.  The movie was amazing and all 3 of us were ready to see it again.

Saturday night we went to The Boulder Theater ...

and saw the touring troop of The Second City, a 50 year old comedy group based out of Chicago. It was raucous and fun.  The last time we'd seen The Second City was in Chicago ... when SRC was only 8 years old.  No, the show is not suitable for 8 year olds.  Yes, it is well established that we are really bad parents.  

Many thanks to JRQ and SRC for letting us visit.
