Colorado Day 1

Hey All! 

Today, Tony and I headed to Colorado. It’s been two years since we last visited Colorado and that is two years to many. Haha! 

We hit the road at about 8 am CST and made it to our AirBNB by 3 pm MST. We were definitely ready to get off the road, but even more excited to be back and seeing all the awesome sights we missed. This town, well, really city,  is a lot bigger than I remember. However, I still love it. ❤️ 

We decided to try a burger joint our AirBNB host suggested and it did not disappoint! It’s called Crave Real Burgers and it is made with 100% Colorado meat. Tony and I decided to buy two different burgers and then split them in half. We tried the Love Stinks (garlic cream cheese, onion strings, candied bacon, roasted red peppers, onion, garlic mayo, ketchup and red aioli) and the Campfire (buffalo patty, raspberry bbq, pepper jack, jalapeno bottle caps and coffee-dusted onion strings). Both burgers were delicious! We also got shakes. Tony got the s’mores and I decided on the banana cream pie. Again, both very good. We were also very surprised. The portions online looked HUGE, but they were actually good portions that filled you up without overfilling you. This is definitely a place we are considering trying again before we have to head home.

One fun thing we did the last time we were here was pick out three movies each, without telling the other person, and then watch them throughout our stay. We decided to do that again, but our rules this time was that we had to pick one from Netflix, Hulu, Prime and I added Disney+. They had to come from our Queue and we couldn’t have watched them already. We decided to move forward with watching one of my choices from Disney+ which was Togo. It was very good! If you haven’t seen it, I’d highly suggest it. While so many people know the story of Balto...everyone should really know the story of Togo. 🐕 

After that we were pretty exhausted and decided to call it a night. Day 2 (happening right now) is set to bring our first hiking adventure and we were pretty excited about that! 

Healthy Lifestyle Success: We had to eat out for Breakfast and Lunch and while we could have just gone crazy with our choices, we both tried to be sensible and stick with water and the main sandwich without adding on the extra sides. Yay! 

We’ll be back tomorrow to recap our full Day 2 Adventures.
