Rocky Mountain High

Living in Colofornia is a never ending circus. From prairie dog defenders to the special lunacy of Pitkin County (Aspen) and the People’s Republic of Boulder there is almost always something in the news.

The Broncos play in Mile High Stadium. Naming rights come and go as the firms owning them go bankrupt.

Now, on April 1^st, a marijuana firm wants to buy the naming rights.

Marijuana now being legal (somewhat) in Colorado, the jokes will be endless.

Wonder if you can get weed along with your beer?

Nearly all my relatives are Bronco fans, including my daughter in law, FDIL.  She transcends “fan” to fanatic. All have been suffering terrible since the Super Bowl. My youngest son, married to FDIL, and I are Seahawk fans. We have had a lovely few months gloating and rubbing it in. Now a new season is upon us.

Two key date. Preseason, three days from now, the Hawks play the Donkey in Denver. Then, September 21^st in the regular season, the teams play in Seattle.

I’m not sure the kinfolk will survive the Donkeys losing again. Of course, if the improbable happens and they win, some fifty or so folks will be gleefully coming after my hide.

Love can conquer all. Two years ago FDIL bought my son a very nice leather Seahawk jacket. In turn, around her, he restricts himself to a few quiet smiles. I'm not as restrained. Of course, I don't live there.

August 14^th should be interesting. My cousins have an annual gathering to watch fireworks during the town’s founder’s day celebration. Will it be my Little Bighorn?
