Skywatch Friday and Anniversary


Today is my blog's one year anniversary!

In celebration, I'm giving you a look at the Jackson sunset above the Colonial golf course. Hope everyone is having a fabulous Friday and here's wishing you a wonderful weekend!!!

Check out some other skies around the world at the Skywatch Blog.

Juleps


Juleps is one of my favorite bars in the Jackson area. They have an extensive drink list, but their specialty is martinis. The bartenders there make a mean choco-tini. It's scrumptious - a dessert in itself!

More Shopping


My husband and I spent some of our economic stimulus check at the Williams-Sonoma. They always know how to make pots and pans look really good!

Stylish Shopping


The Renaissance is Jackson's latest shopping area. It's one of those "outdoor" malls with lots of pedestrian areas and ambiance. It's actually not too bad, it sort of reminds me of Val d'Europe - an area in the Parisian suburbs near to where I used to live.

Right now there are not a lot of shops open there. Many of the upscale stores have moved out of the traditional mall and relocated here. I hope they will fill up with some more bars and restaurants though because it would be a really nice place to hang out in the evenings.

Greetings from Denver!


I was in Denver this weekend. My husband had a training course to do there and I tagged along for the fun.

This is a look at the rockies just outside of Denver near the Loveland Pass just at the continental divide. It was over 100 degrees in the city, but only 68 up here - brrr!!!


We stopped at the pass on our way to the Keystone Bluegrass and Beer Fest. Some friends of ours took us there and it was quite a good time. We tasted microbrews from all over Colorado, talked and listened to some live music. Keystone is a cute resort town with its own style. Seeing the slopes almost made me want to take up winter sports again.

Funnily enough, I have never actually been skiing or boarding in the US. All of my mountain experience has been in the French or Swiss Alps. Perhaps I'll give the Rockies a go next winter!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. Your regularly scheduled Jackson photo will be back tomorrow.
