Month: December 2004

Beth and Todd the day after Christmas 2004, in Glenwood Springs  Did I mention we had a great Christmas? Beth and I drove to my parents’ house near Redstone, CO.

Here’s what the guitar… Continue reading Merry Christmas to me

I finally scanned the photos I took on our Thanksgiving snorkeling trip to Yal Ku Lagoon, and added those to my Akumal photos page. There are some of my first underwater photos there. Most of them came out really crappy, but here are the best of them.

Last night, Beth and I went to L’Atelier, a fancy restaurant in Boulder. I wouldn’t really call it a “French restaurant” despite the name. Boy did we spend a fortune on dinner! All told it was just shy of $150 for the two of us, but every single thing we had there was good, from… Continue reading weekend stuff
