We just got some pictures from our Saturday afternoon hike up past the Flatirons outside of Boulder. The weather was gorgeous and the view from our picnic spot was amazing but hiking at Colorado elevation is so much harder than North Carolina!



On Sunday we went to Avery Brewing Co. to sample the brews and play with our friend T. Mule at their open stage. On the way through Boulder, we saw some pretty interesting protesters. . .only in Boulder!We spent the afternoon at Avery and sampled quite a few different brews while having fun with our impromptu jam session.
Sunday was supposed to be our first day off, but we met Kort McCumber, the winner of the 2008 Flat Rock Music Festival Songwriter's contest (the festival is held just minutes from our home in NC) at the brewery and he invited us to play a set with his band that evening at Mountain Sun in Boulder. We got to play our own set and then sit in with his band for the duration of the evening.
Yesterday, we went up to Sole Sound Recording studio to lay down some tracks on a friend's acoustic project. The studio is outside of Conifer, CO with all-analog equipment and views to die for.
We adventured around the property and saw the old crane from an abandoned granite quarry. We're trying to enjoy all the sunshine and unseasonably warm weather that we can our last few days in the mountains!
