This culinary epiphany came only days before I left my home sweet home in Austin, Texas, to return to CU Boulder after an epic hiatus to wrap up my bachelor’s degree in journalism.

You are so fun. I am sure that you will have so much fun with the new perfect pool right out your backdoor.

Love the color of the Pebble Sheen, and again compliment all your selections. The design of the waterfalls is so great too, just overall amazing! Don't know how I'll lure you to come visit me ???
P.S. When is card camp again?!
