Rock Creek (Superior, CO)
Fun, Music, and World Class Chili at Rock Creek's Chili Fest in Superior, Colorado. This year's Chili Fest (which was the 10th annual) more than made up for the cold, rainy day we had at last year's competition. For the town of Superior, Colorado it was a welcomed distraction. A time of remembering. A time of moving forward. A time to be grateful that things didn't turn out worst (when you consider that parts of the city Boulder had been on evacuation alert just a couple of days ago). The fires in Four Mile Canyon are 70% contained (as of last night). We also all remember and acknowledge the date of 9/11 and everything it now means. As Hazel Miller (the musical headliner) mentioned just before she started to sing, we need to remember, but we can't let the threat of terrorism control us ...

A Local Hospital is Another Added Value to the Rock Creek Community. Watching the real estate cycle over the past few years has been an enlightening experience. Why have some communities lost substantial value in homes whereas another community just a few miles away has been able to maintain its value? One thing I realized recently is the added value that local hospitals bring to communities. A local hospital gives homeowners a level of assurance that should the need arise, professional care is available nearby. You might wonder what would make think about a local hospital. Well as the father of two boys, my wife and I are not strangers to emergency rooms. Recently two experiences made me grateful for having close access to a top notch medical facility, namely Avista Adventist Hospital ...

10th Annual Chili Fest returns to Rock Creek in Superior, Colorado. The fall is such a great time of year. The dog days of August give way to cooler days. The Aspens start to prepare for our local foilage show. I do miss that the summer music shows have come to an end. But I always look forward to our Annual Chili Fest in Community Park in Rock Creek. This year's Chili Fest has raised the bar and the Town of Superior is going to host the 30th Annual Mile High Cook-Off which is a regional International Chili Society sanctioned event. And for those others that are also missing getting good local music, Hazel Miller and The Delta Sonics will be putting out some great music. There's more information on volunteering, booth informaiton, and competing here at the Town of Superior web site. If ...

Angelic Sunset on the Colorado Front Range I took this photo yesterday right at sunset. The view is looking off my back deck directly at the Front Range just south of the Flatirons. The sun is slowly beginning its journey back across the sky where it will eventually set directly over the side view of the Flatirons from my house. There is something magical about sunrise and sunset views over the mountains. Here, it looks like a league of Angels could be rising up at the skyline.   Search Denver and Boulder County Homes For Sale If you or someone you know is interested in buying or selling a home in Boulder County or anywhere else in Denver Metro, I can help.
