Back into the swing of things

We've been back in the Denver metro area now for 4 weeks! Our roommates have been perfect hosts during our stay in their home. Life just seems to be in limbo and a bit stressful. Which isn't a surprise to either of us. We're trying to find our routine to daily life; which can be difficult without a job or familiar work on repetitive basis.

Larry begins teaching this evening. He'll be teaching Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings until the end of August. He looks forward to continue contract work with local engineering and architecture firms and has some news clients entering the mix.

Rebecca has made great strides looking for her next career. She's joined a career networking group that meets every Friday, has attended a job fair, and has had two interviews within the last week (one in Boulder, the other in Denver). as always, Rebecca isn't one to just sit back and relax, she's also volunteering for church. She's constantly networking with new people and building her career pipeline. The Denver market has improved over the years and the job search looks promising thus far.

We are delighted to see our old friends again! And soon we'll be saying "Bon Voyage!" to two dear friend making the plunge and relocating to Switzerland at the end of June. We've also made a few new friends.
It's hard to believe that we left the mecca of micro brew to return to Boulder where a friend of ours has begun his own brew. Jon has released a Scottish Ale and a Raspberry Wheat so far. Both magnificent! We look forward to the other brews he has scheduled in upcoming months.
Our roommates, Brian and Diane, have been wonderful to us. Their home in Golden has been our home these past few weeks and it's perfect. We get great views of the foothills and the great colors Colorado has to offer this year with all the moisture they've had. We're all avid hockey fans, so we'll be tuned in for the Stanley Cup playoffs. We had a BBQ at the house with 20 guests last weekend. Brian prepared a tasty Pork Shoulder (like pulled pork when done) and great burgers. I must admit, his desserts were my favorite... a Blondie brownie and this gooey bar with butterscotch and chocolate chips. YUMMY!
