Thursday in Boulder

One of the high points of our trip out to Boulder was to meet up again with friends we met thru the internet in a Cooking Forum. But there was a lot of the day to enjoy first.

The day started off overcast with potential of thunderstorms.

We got our reorientation of Boulder thru one of the funky tourist maps but saw there was something VERY good nearby.

We figured we would spend a good part of the morning at a used bookstore, The Bookworm. Alas, it was not to be as the store was locked up, customers waiting but no sign of a key person.

Well, our gps led us to several other bookstores that turned out to be private sellers (i.e. in their home). We don't look for rare books, just used books. But we did spot something just about as good...a bakery, Breadworks.

What else does mid-morning call for other than coffee and a pastry. Sadly, my camera battery died after this shot so there was no view of Dick's to-die-for peach tart. I had one of those scones in the glass case-almond and raspberry.

Well..Dick had to go to work in the afternoon, so I was off to get a new battery. More later.

Thank you for taking me on a trip to Denver then Boulder, it was great through your eyes. I realy enjoy your travel blogging. The food looked great..........wish I could have tasted it too! A trip away every month sounds great, really looking forward to the time when just Dear Husband and I can head off on a whim without kids.
