Wes, the kids, and I spent last weekend at a terrific place near Red Feather Lakes. We rented a beautiful cabin (it’s quite a bit bigger than what I think of when I think of a “cabin”) called Mountain Rose, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. Check it out by visiting themountainrose.com. Between the spectacular views from our location nestled among the mountains, the relaxing hours in the private hot tub, and the warm welcome we received from owners Maggie and Marge, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you’re in need of some R&R. Staying there gives you fishing and boating access to several private lakes as well as public lakes. We spent some time on Crystal Lake…breathtaking.
That said, I’d also like to invite anyone who’s interested to join us in a fundraising BBQ for Democratic Congressional candidate Angie Paccione. The BBQ begins at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 19th, and will be held on the private, 5-acre lot on which Mountain Rose is situated. Guests will enjoy excellent food and drink as well as live music. Financial contributions to Angie’s campaign are, of course, voluntary…maybe you’d just like to meet her or get to know her stance on the issues (that’s the main reason I’m going–I know what I’ve read about her, but I want to meet her in person). This is a perfect opportunity to do so, and at the same time, you’ll get a firsthand look at the property. If anyone wants to ride up with Wes, the girls, and me (the boys will be with their dad that weekend), we’ve got room in the van for 3 people. Or, if you want to travel there on your own, email me for directions. If you plan on going, please RSVP to the hosts at mmatmtrose@centurytel.net or by calling 1-800-477-7673.
If you’ve read my columns over the years, even only a couple, you can imagine how much I dislike Marilyn Musgrave. I respect that not everyone shares my opinion of her, and that’s cool. But if you think it’s time for a change, it would be great to see you at the BBQ. And I would love for you to get to see Mountain Rose.
