Bunk beds are a classic in any home with kids. Need some fun ideas for creating bunk beds for your home? We were interested and we turned to Dwell.com. Great resource for anyone interested in modern design. Here are a few of the ones they featured. The complete slide show and related articles can be viewed here.
It’s hot out there! Want to beat the heat? Enjoy some of the most refreshing water we have in town along Boulder Creek! We are so lucky in Boulder to have the Boulder Creek running right through town. Hit some of the hot spots to go tubing, wading, swimming, kayaking, or just sit next to the water to enjoy the sights and sounds. To get the best access to Boulder Creek try Eben G. Fine Park at the West end of Arapahoe, park at the Boulder Public Library where you can walk right over to a beautiful shady spot near the creek, or find it anywhere along the bike path.

Spring is the beginning of so many new things–garden planting, repairing buildings, bringing baby animals into the world– and that was true for ranch families in the Victorian days also. Join costumed volunteers at Walker Ranch homestead for a peek into pioneer living in springtime. Smell what’s cooking in the log house, chat with the blacksmith, and do hands-on old-fashioned activities. Great event for the whole family! Free. More details here.
