Snow...snow...snow...



But in Colorado this week...well let's just say the GRASS really is GREENER!

Or in the words of John Denver "Rocky Mountain High"

As Colorado becomes the second state to legalize recreational marijuana. All together there are 21 States and the District of Columbia that have legalized it in one form or another.

To quote Dylan "The Times They are a-Changin' "

And with the dispensaries...has already budded (pun intended) The Cannabis Tourism Industry. Bringing us

Matt Brown co-owner of the newly formed My 420 Tours offers the complete pot experience...including sampling of different strains, oils and hash, a tour of a growing site, edible pot products (even pot truffles), a concert, a pot-friendly hotel and hands on growing labs/courses. The tour spans four days and costs range between $600-$900 dollars. All transportation is provided.

One dispensary delights in saying it made over 10K in only the first few hours on product alone.









And let's face it...if you grew up in the 70's...there are now amazing career opportunities in the fields you specialized (or knew someone who did) in. People actually get paid to clean weed.
Who could have imagined!





And forget the zip-lock baggies...now sold out of Apothecary jars and looking as respectable as your Grandpa's pipe tobacco shop. 


Maybe THIS explains the weather this week.


Watching this morning as more snow blows in...adding to the 4" already on the ground. We are suppose to have 7"-12" before it is done with us today and temperatures dropping to double digit negatives.

Hibernation sounds better and better.



Baking homemade basil, oregano and garlic- herbed bread and have minestrone soup simmering. The house smells like a trattoria and Tucker is curled in a tight ball sound asleep.
Life is Good.

And (musing) no wonder the Fall DS Gathering is in Colorado this year :)
