Expect winds 20-30 miles per hour gusting to 45, relative humidity as low as eight percent, and temperatures in the low to mid-70s.

Vacuuming. A despicable chore. Some people call it therapy. I can see that for some people..but not me. Real therapy to me would be having a kitchen window to look out of while I do the dishes-only those that I don’t have room for in the dishwasher, which happens quite often. I have at least two of everything just in case one might be in the dishwasher when I get the urge to use it.

Are you new to big game hunting in Colorado? If so, chances are you’re not sure where to begin. With terms like “hunt codes” and “preference points” getting a Colorado big game hunting license may seem daunting.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife District Wildlife Managers have a plan to help decode the mystery at a big game application workshop.

You might ask how they can keep you from getting to your files.Good question.It's kind of like when you were a kid and a much bigger kid took your lunch box and you knew there was no way you could take it back. It’s the same thing here, but with no teacher to help.
