Boulder, CO


The drive into boulder from Denver was about 30 minute trek into canyon surrounded by towering peaks. We had initially planned to meet up with one of our friends from Norman that recently moved to boulder to peruse a PhD in chemistry. After meeting our friend Jesse, We hopped in the car and headed to the CU campus. I had heard people criticize Colorado for not giving the best college degrees, and that it's only a party school. I can see how this might be true, there is just so much to do, and every single day the weather is perfect- quite a change from what I am used to here in Norman. Everything was lush green, alive, and not 900 degrees. Just a glance to the left on a hill and enormous peaks reveal themselves. We walked from the library to the chemistry building, passing over two streams, and a ten-foot sundial in the process.
