Boulder’s great. It has the energy of a university town but enough grownups to make the place palatable. And for a city of its size, it has some pretty incredible food and shopping. Oh, and of course, all of that natural beauty. Let’s not forget about that.
The one thing is that it’s really freaking dry. This is slightly annoying because I’m constantly searching for lip balm or hand cream, but in the big scheme of things, it’s not so bad.
In fact, it can be rather entertaining. I left a stack of white bread on the counter (don’t ask – it’s a long story) overnight, and it turned into something akin to petrified wood. When tapped on the counter, it made this really dry tap-tap-tap sound that no food should ever make.
Anyway, we took turns launching petrified slices of bread off the balcony, frisbee-style. It was fun.
