KENNY WAYNE SHEPHERD WILL BE MELTING WINTER PARK SOON  And if you’re not familiar with his most excellent blues music you should be. He has now re recorded his debut album LEDBETTER HEIGHTS (The 30th Anniversary Sessions), which is out now. Along with longtime lead singer Noah Hunt this version has the feel of years of experience that it didn’t have the first time. I love when art...

THE LEGISLATURE WANTS OUR ROADS TO SUCK  That is the only conclusion I can draw from House Bill 26-1430, passed at the end of the session, whose sole purpose is to screw taxpayers who have the nerve to vote for Initiative 175. What is 175? Initiative 175 would constitutionally require a shift of transportation taxes Coloradans already pay on cars, tires, and gas to fund roads and bridges. &nb...

WHO KNEW BAGELS COULD CREATE SUCH A KERFUFFLE  This past week I found out there was a little deli in Parker that was shipping in bagels made in New York for sale. No, I don’t eat many bagels, but living in Douglas County I can tell you it’s a real bagel wasteland. There are bagels to be found, but none of them compare to a real New York bagel. So when I saw online that I could get...
