This year much to my delight the Nature Center not only had turtles, cockroaches galore, and snakes to touch, but real life vultures! I couldn't believe my eyes, I was so excited. Getting up close and personal with these majestic and oh so important creatures was incredible. While they do not reside in house there is a plethora of visiting animals. In the past I've been fortunate to see eagles and other birds of prey. While this non-profit currently resides in the heart of town (in the Caribou Village Shopping Center) there are plans to relocate it (at the crossroads of County Road 128 and Highway 72). Unfortunately a sink hole has put a damper on this plan. Go ahead, pay them a visit and if you are feeling generous throw a donation their way as they prepare for the building of their new space. I know I will.

After arriving on time as promised, Mr. Geitzen proceeded to find multiple problems with my machine that frankly I am amazed he found! I never would have thought to look where this gent went to resolve several of my problems. By the time he was done, EVERYTHING on my machine was repaired and working properly. Had I called anyone else to make these repairs, I know darn well that it would have involved another lengthy visit. This man is one of the best technicians I have ever met! He is able to go much further than any other technician I have experienced. Component level repair at a very reasonable price. This gent is the absolute best in Colorado hands down!

During a recent excursion with an out of town friend I discovered "The Shop". A lover of all things…read morethrift and consignment I was thrilled to find this gem in the heart of downtown Nederland. What can I say, the sale rack just outside the store drew us right in. Upon entering the shop I was surprised by it's size (it spans two rooms). Additionally the shop has encased jewelry as well as locally made jewelry featured near the cash register. The shop featured day to day clothing, work attire, warm weather gear, accessories and footwear. Unfortunately I didn't get to take as much time as I would have liked in the shop (after all I had an out of town guest who refuses to wear second hand clothing). I was surprised indeed by all the great finds, locally made leather earrings, astronaut Cabbage Patch Dolls (Lila Brandy my cabbage patch doll would have loved a little astronaut friend), cowboy boots, and loads of outerwear. I'll definitely drop in the next time I'm in town, after all this shop is just steps away from my favorite Nederland Cafe (New Moon Cafe and bakery).
