Enjoy your moments...

A summer evening in Boulder, Colorado wouldn't be complete without spending time in Chautauqua Park. Watching the sun set over the flatirons while enjoying good food, friends, and live music, the summer in Boulder is just beginning.

Last night, the Indigo Girls performed for a very enthusiastic crowd in Chautauqua Park . I couldn't have asked for a more perfect end to a most enjoyable weekend. A few of us decided to go early plant our feet in the grass and enjoy a few laughs, a few drinks, and of course always delicious food.

Fans since our adolescent years, Megan and I were so excited to see the Indigo Girls live! We only hoped that we would be able to get close enough to the outdoor stadium in order to hear and see the music. For a few hours before the concert, we enjoyed a lovely picnic filled with nothing but laughter and of course wonderful company.

As we began to hear cheers from the stadium, Megan and I knew we were "moments" away from hearing some of the music that shaped our growing years. We left our picnic gathered our drinks and headed towards the outside stadium for a closer view. Megan and I quickly became engulfed by the music and shortly after were signing and dancing as if no one else was there.

As the evening wore on, Megan and I wondered how the boys were doing witnessing this whole experience. After all, they were a minority this evening. We turned around only to find the boys behind us looking on with someone elses binoculars. They were already making new friends at the Indigo Girls concert. I swear by the end of the night, both Peter and Danny were signing along...

I am sure more "enjoyable moments" will be created this summer...
