A Little Sewing and Camber Brewing Company

Bob and I have been enjoying our week here in Granby, CO. Our days have been filled with visiting local antique shops, checking out a microbrewery in Fraser (about 20 minutes away,) and enjoying the local scenery. I spent one day preparing and one day sewing this backpack-style purse from Swoon patterns called Denver.
I’m very pleased with the way it came out.

We chatted with the bartender at Camber Brewing Company about what it’s like to live in this area.
She told us it’s a beautiful place to live. By the end of October they’ve typically had their first snowfall, and you still need a winter jacket on July 4, but the snow is usually gone by mid July and then it’s nice and warm for a few weeks. Ummmm....this is a great place to visit and we’ve hand a marvelous time but I wouldn’t want to live in a place with that much winter! But right now the aspens are turning gold and it’s lovely.
On Sunday we pack up and move on down to Pueblo, CO for a week. It will be a bit warmer there and at about 4700 feet in elevation it will be a lot easier to breathe!

  1. Our daughter lives in SW Colorado and we visited last year. As we were leaving Mesa Verde we encountered very light snow flurries and she yelled "We're not supposed to have snow in August!" When I reminded her it was September first she calmed down and said "Well then it's OK."

    We left Florida to escape ten months of summer but ten months of winter in Colorado sounds even worse.

    Safe travels!
