our house

Dear Mom,

Can't write long... we're getting a late start today and will probably only make it halfway to the Tetons. So much to do-- house is chaos-- but we love it here!! Don't have to drive anywhere. There's an organic grocery store, yummy breakfast place, two coffee shops, yoga studio (free classes if you volunteer to clean once/week), Kinkos, and Indian restaurant right around the corner. And an amazing little brewery with $1 late night tacos just an 8 min. bike ride down the street.

Suki's doing great-- already made friends with the lab next door and is curiously eyeing the three cats on the other side. Neighborhood is awesome-- super friendly-- lots of East Coast transplants. At least half a dozen pepole stopped by to welcome us on our first day. Lots of compliments on Toto! House lender sent us two great travel books on Colorado, and contractor showed up yesterday with a lovely bottle of Argentinian wine. And did I mention that we started a conversation with these random guys at the brewery the other night, and they ended up buying our dinner?! We later found out that one of them lives just a few houses down.

This place is AMAZING. People are incredible. House is adorable, and our guest room has a clear view of the Flatirons. Can't wait for you to visit-- you're going to love it here!!

Will write more from the road. Love you and miss you...

Amy & Tom
