Colorado Snow
I received a pair of Guideline Eyegear’s Alpine polarized sunglasses to try out this season1 and I’ve been really impressed. Build Quality When skiing I always carry a pair of goggles to the slopes and throw a pair of sunglasses in my pack to pull out when outside at lunch or driving or on a […]
You’ve probably already seen them around the blog and our Instagram feed, but I wanted to take a second to publicly profess how much I adore my Anarchy sunglasses (the women’s line is called “angel“). It’s always sunglass season in Colorado; the glare off the snow in the winter can be equally (if not more) punishing […]
This past weekend we, with the encouragement of some friends, decided to try out nordic skiing at the Breckenridge Nordic Center. We weren’t quite sure what we were in for but it ended up being a fun, tough, rewarding half-day of hiking-slash-skiing. We stopped into the nordic center a little before lunch and took care […]

Many moons ago, the fine folks at Easy Canvas Prints offered us the opportunity to create our own canvas print of one of our photographs. Devin never mentioned that this opportunity arose and instead came home from work one day with a surprise package. Perhaps he kept this secret because he knows how opinionated I […]
Promax was kind enough send us a couple of their new Promax Crunch energy bars to help fuel up for the season. I tried both flavors: chocolate and peanut cherry and I’d say the peanut cherry tastes the best. The chocolate has a hint of coconut but was a bit bland and was just like […]
