Left work early yesterday to go for a hike with Evan.

Beautiful views, weather, and company - what's not to like?

Evan had recently read an article about Boulder's restaurants and felt inspired by it - so we went out to eat.  Thanks to my mom's gift certificate, we got a really nice meal at Olive Garden.

They have tasty salad, and the bowl is huge.  They refill it for free, too, so between that and the breadsticks, you can get a tasty and filling meal for $6.  They even throw in free dessert at the end - mint chocolates, which is one of the tastiest desserts I've ever had.  To summarize, it is a great place for cheapo's and picky eaters like me. :-)
