Surprisingly, my dog Tessa didn't make the cut, but a co-worker's cute puppy did. The rest are a nice mix of my interests: Halloween, Museums, Weird Light Up Sweaters, Comedy Shows, and my first ever NFL game! Be sure to check out more here and to follow me!
2018 was a Year of Culture for me: 10 museums (California Science Center, LA Natural History Museum, La Brea Tar Pits, The Getty, The Getty Villa, The Last Bookstore, Next Stage Gallery, Denver Art Museum x2, Denver Museum of Nature and Science x2, Molly Brown's House) 5 plays (Hamilton, Aladdin, Love's Labour's Lost, Book of Mormon, White Christmas) 4 trips (Puerto Vallarta, Boston, Los Angeles, Orlando) 3 concerts (Dandy Warhols, The Fray, Scottish/Highland Bands) 3 theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Universal Studios, Universal Islands of Adventure) 2 comedy shows (Lewis Black, Steve Martin & Martin Short) 2 ghost tours (Brown Palace,
I tried to keep the month more low key. I added more automated lights and plus to my smart home setup and then mostly started experimenting with watercolor paints (I'm pretty bad at the moment.) I also got this amazing Hogwarts light up Christmas Sweater: View this post on Instagram Geeking out over my new Christmas Sweater! A Hogwarts one with lights!

Fall is my favorite season. Its also Tessa's as she loves to eat leaves: View this post on Instagram It's going to snow tomorrow so made sure Tessa got to do her favorite fall activity: leaf eating.

The bus is made of wood, and inside are an eclectic mix of seats. (While the saw-horse is a novelty, it is not comfy enough to sit in on the entire ride.) The decor is also very mixed with christmas lights, buttons, tassels, disco balls, and other kitschy decorations hot glued here and there. The horn has a mixture of sounds from a cat-call like whistle to the sound of a barking dog.
Banjo Billy's is a local tour operator that does ghost and beer tours of Boulder and Denver. I go every October for their ghost bus tour. Since its the first Friday in September I can now officially start planning for Halloween! Every Friday Lili shares her favorite photography & the stories behind the photos.
