Halloween

What a fun filled weekend for Halloween.  It started with happy hour at a new restaurant that I have been wanting to try for a long time, Tahona.  Michelle and I met up to grab a drink and appetizer before meeting up with Brad for dinner.  The happy hour was great with lots to choose from and amazing food.  We will defiantly be going back and it is on my list for best restaurants, I was very impressed.  It was so fun to get out with a best friend and just chat and forget about life, what a treat!!!  We later met up with Brad did some site seeing and people watching before dinner.  We went to SALT, it is the new "it" restaurant on Pearl Street.  There food is very good and they use ingredients from local farms in the area.  They even have a salt dish on the table with salt from Greece and the Middle East.  Michelle and I shared a beet salad, squash salad and pasta.  Brad had the New York strip steak, it was all simply amazing.   See below for a link to both Restaurants...

Saturday we bummed around Boulder and ran some errands.  We also meet up with my mom for lunch and shopping at 29th Street mall.  Brad had a soar throat so we headed home early and called it a night.

Halloween was a ghoulish time with lots of fun.  We started the day out with a Bronco loss which was no surprise with the way they have been playing football.  When ever they suck I revert to calling them "the donkeys".  This year it seems like all the football teams are a lost cause.  Anyways now on to the fun.  We booked a tour with Banjo Billy's in Boulder with John and Maggie, it was a ghost tour.  I read online to get there early to snag the  "saddle" seat.  We were the first one's to board and sure enough I rode on the saddle the whole tour.  My legs and butt were a little soar afterward but I DID IT!!!  It was a great time with lots of spooky ghost stories.  It was fun to drive around Pearl Street and see all of the costumes and hear lots of fun stories.  The tour was great and I highly recommend it for a fun Boulder activity. The horn was great on the bus with three different options... A dogs bark, I horses nah, and a woo, woo, when ever anyone waved we would yell YEEHA!!  It was lots of fun, all four of us had a great time.  Afterward we headed to West End Tavern to have some of their famous wings before calling it a night.  I have been shocked all weekend the the beautiful weather we have had for October!!!  When I grew up trick-or-treating it never failed we always had to wear our coats because of the cold weather.  Not this year it was absolutely gorgeous.  I hope everyone  had a great fun filled weekend, we did!!!
