i used to live in ft collins; i know the area well! my companion is buddhist (and i have definite leanings)...last year for his birthday i drove us up to shambhala as a surprise. it's a beautiful place...so spiritual, so serene. i'd not been to red feather in probably 25-30 years. i was surprised to see the forks cafe' still exists!

last i knew there wasn't any sort of 'scene' in ft collins, but given where you live now, that beats the heck outta dealing with sporto-collegians and neo-hippies in ft fun!

also, i'd wager the devil-skwerls are either aberts or douglas...i believe they both live up there. up here at 9100' we get douglas, (aka chickarees or pine skwerls). they are damned cute little buggers.

thanks for sharing! :)

YES! thanks you!!!! I love living here, especially now with the snow adding that extra bit of solitude and beauty to the Stupa.
The forks JUST closed, or so I heard- we all go to the pot belly deli and bar up in red feather, for karaoke on saturdays.damn! 9100? where do you live?

[daoine_o]

i've seen photos in the shambhala catalog of the stupa in the snow...breathtaking! i'd love to take another trip up there sometime soon and see it in person. (and i know my companion wouldn't say no!)

aw, fare-thee-well, forks cafe'. :(

our home is in the mountains about 50 miles west of denver. :)

C*L*O*S*E!!!!!

Welcome and greetings!
It sounds like you live in an amazing place. I'm jealous of your snow! It's still too hot where I am in the southeast to wear long-sleeves during the day.
Starvatia sounds magnificent, I'd love to see a picture! I just began making little top hats for myself. I have all the materials, I just need to make myself put them together.
Lovely to have you join. :)

[nandithebull]

oooo! send me a pattern? Where do you live?? I was in Hawaii for a long time so I know the "too hot" feeling all too well. It's so hard to wear nice clothes when it's all sticky!

[silverlinegypsy]

Alas, I have no pattern: I'm taking the lazy way out and covering a cheap pre-made doll's hat from a craft store. But I'm hoping that the ribbons and satin will make up for its humble origins! :)
I'm definitely not as tropical as Hawaii, living as I am in Tennessee, and it does get cold here, it just takes a bloody long time to do it! We actually had a cold spell last week that gave me some hope, but it was apparently just a phase. No matter, though. I'm about to break out my new winter coat on a trip to the UK, where the wind is always blowing and the skies are always grey. :D

[nandithebull]

I see...I might have to do the same! Also, I have been to London 3 times and I love it there. People don't give a fuck what you look like there so much. Where in the UK are you going??
