Grow Local Day – May 14
Did you know that today, May 14, 2009 is Denver’s “Grow Local Day”? Yes, it is! It was so declared by Mayor John Hickenlooper.

Here’s a story about Hickenlooper’s… Continue reading Grow Local Day – May 14
our home value is going down
In Broomfield, everyone is getting their “2009 Real Property Notice of Valuation” letters last week and this week. Folks are in an uproar because the county is assessing property so high, when property values are actually going down.

Cheerleader Ninjas
I just learned of a film released in 2002 called “Cheerleader Ninjas.” It’s showing at The Bug Theatre (in Denver) on April 7.
