I still think that moving here 2 years ago was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Pandemic or not.

Now one step away from full lockdown in Denver and 10+ surrounding counties.

About time to find a job and residence in a more libertarian state.

  • Alcohol sales end at 8pm
  • Gyms cut down to 10% capacity with a max of 10 people
  • Ban on all indoor events

Guess this means churches are closed again? The affront to our rights in unconscionable. Yet people just keep asking for more. This isn't a flesh-eating ebola.

IFR is .1% for those under 40. Let us live our lives and lockdown those at risk.

Move away... then in 6-12 months when all this over there won't be as many people here!

That's a long term fix for a short term problem.

Yep. And unless you go to Wyoming or The Dakotas not sure it'd be better off.

Anyone know of a good cement / garage contact in Denver? Just bought my first home and want to add a garage or carport in the front of the house, but have no clue what I'm doing. Pretty inexperienced in this stuff, so want someone I can trust and like.

I wish my dad was a handyman so I could've learned this stuff as a kid.

My company pours about 50kcy of concrete a year.. but our guys don't do residential side work outside of for employees.

I can chat with you about your project though, if you have any questions.

They did our back patio and we're happy with it. Will have them do front walkway amd driveway redo when the time comes.

62strat, thank you for the kind offer. I'm starting from scratch on this, so once I get the ball rolling, I'll be sure to loop you in for a 2nd opinion.

Schall, that's a great reference point thank you! The front yard still needs to be gutted (pretty sure that's what happens) where the driveway will go. I'll see if they can also do that.

Thanks!

Mayor of Denver traveling to Mississippi for the holidays, guessing he didn't expect to get caught? Continues in the "rules for thee not for me" mentality.

Man that's really tough to answer without knowing more. What are you looking for? Have a job lined up?

Looks like there is a Pikes Peak A&M club but they don't look very active. We just hired a guy for our Colorado Springs office and he graduated in 17 or 18 I believe.

Top schools/residential really. Work from home.

Lots of schools are virtual right now. Cherry Creek I believe is one of the best. We're up in Erie and are zoned to Boulder Valley but our daughter goes to Aspen Ridge and they're still in-person which we're very thankful for. We enjoy being close to Lafayette, Louisville, old town Erie as well as very close to Longmont. I'm sure some others on here can give you much better information regarding Denver proper if that's what you're looking for.

I'd put my vote in for Douglas County. Parker, Lone Tree, Highlands Ranch, Castle Pines, and Castle Rock would all fit the bill nicely

I'll 2nd Thriller on DougCo. We moved to Highlands Ranch from DFW 5 years ago and love it. Good access to the mountains, great kid activities and schools are good.

another DougCo resident here, in Parker.

Don't know about schools.. they are good, but for one of the richest counties in america, it should be so much better. My wife is in the system, and there are so many faults. But it's not like it's bad, just not good as it could be.

Did you see the recent news? DCDS lowered the grading scale; failing is now below 52, instead of the already lenient below 60.

This is an example of the terrible leadership we have.

Merry Christmas y'all. Anyone have an eye doctor in south Denver/suburbs they'd recommend?

Merry Christmas!

I feel very fortunate to have a great group of doctors, dentists, etc. With that in mind, Dr. Jon Pederson is probably at the top of my list of any medical professional I've ever used:

Please tell him I referred you.

It's been a crazy first 1-1/2 years in Colorado. Wouldn't change it for anything though. This move was probably the best thing we could have done for the family.

Here's an article written about the extreme weather events for ending 2019 and 2020.

Same here - couldn't imagine a better state to be with bars and restaurants limited. Plenty of stuff to do outdoors. Although Wyoming near Jackson Hole might be better.

I honesty think Colorado was spared a big covid hit due to health of the people and the amount of sunshine we get. Vitamin D levels have to be higher than average here, and after visiting Houston over Christmas, I can confirm we are much thinner here!

Glad we are back in orange and can eat indoors.

Anyone visit this new place called Number 38? It's a new outdoor live music venue in RiNo, and they are actually doing live music right now. Western Week starts tomorrow evening.

I haven't but that is pretty close to where I live, so will probably check it out soon. Took a look at the bands for country week and didn't recognize any of them though.

"Western" music is a stretch. The bluegrass band Turkeyleg playing this Friday is from Colorado and they are pretty good. I went last week and it was a fun show. Cold but they have plenty of hot drinks and propane heaters outside.

Their cashless / cardless tab system is pretty cool and convenient. Looking forward to summer shows with volleyball going on as well.
