Rocky Mountain High

Howdy from Denver...actually Cherry Creek!

Got up this morning and looked to the West from my room at the Hampton Inn and got the million dollar view. Look at those peaks! What a great way to start the day. Actually Lee's was just to the West of the hotel. My drive to the store made it more like an adventure. Never take the easy road!
Made the rounds with Larry Young today to Lee's in Fort Collins, University Bikes in Boulder and then on to Wheatridge to see Kathy Placchi. Got beat up pretty bad given the competitive marketplace. We have lots to do if we are going to stand as best in class.

It seems as if the competition is here like no where else in the country. Lots of sales support and in store support.




Today was otherwise an awesome day. Snow in the mountains and lots of sunshine. It actually felt pretty warm after lows below zero last night. Some melting but they are looking forward to even warmer temperatures as the week goes on. It has been a tough string of cold and snow for the Front Range. You just have to love those mountains. I can see why people love this part of the country. Too bad there is no ocean or big lakes. I thing I can get a sense of why Vancouver is so loved as a location. I t makes me a bit afraid to ever go there. I just may not want to leave. Mountains, water, trees, etc.

Tomorrow it is on to Aurora with Chris Grande and the back to mad town on Thursday.
