Entertaining 101

Company coming into town you say?
Do what I do!
Try to convince them to want to do alllll the things that you want to do in your city...
but never get the chance
or feel it is too touristy...
or irresponsible....
the result?
I think we all had a great time:)
And Dave and I were sad to see Ashley (David's sis)Pat(a BFF)and Krystal(another BFF and Pat's wife) go home!!

First stop: Brewery tours in Fort Collins (which I might have left out the fact beforehand  that I was also going to drag everyone through my old college campus and sorority house and other old haunts)
What can I say? I was typsy and my posse was obliging:)

Next Stop:  we proceed to Boulder to take in the sights and "nightlife". I quote this because I took everyone to a billiards bar that I raved about beforehand. This might have changed everyones opinion of me FOREVER. Why? oh no reason, my guest just probably now think that I dig bars full of 45+ drinkers with no inhibitions dancing to 80's music. No joke. At least I got to eat a lot of cherries at the bar... we decided to call it a night after that.
Next Day: Sight seeing downtown. My personal highlights? The big blue bear looking in the convention center, overhearing Pat say to the girls in a low voice "that guy looks important" and then me turning around tour guide style "note former Governor Owens and his minion passing (as I swing my arm around as if I am showing furniture on The Price is Right), and lunch with my brother and his (girl)friend (whom he just bought a rose haired tarantula for...what?!)
Next Stop:  Get David from the airport!!! Then yummy din with my fam and our Texas buddies.
Next Stop:   Home:) some guitar playing and blue moon.

Last day: Eaaaaarly morning. A full day of tubing and snowboarding in Keystone and cheesy pizza in Breckenridge. Now I want that pizza...
It snowed for Pat and Krystal, which I was so pleased because I knew how much they wanted to see it and play in it:)
