winter

Thrillist complied a 'Winter Misery Index' for all fifty states. Given how much we love the slopes, but loathe icy commutes, I'm surprised where we ranked.

What was playtime for Khloe the dog turned into a scary and unexpected swim in a Fort Collins pond.

We've all experienced it. A snowstorm hits...drops six inches of snow...and the road that you drive on is now impassable for five weeks.

Just things that have come up in my head. This is me. I live in Colorado, eat too many microwaved burritos and burned all my bras.

If you've ever been to Minneapolis - or anywhere in the Midwest, for that matter - you know how frigid the temps can get. That said, humor has a way of warming people's hearts (even when it's negative 60 degrees Fahrenheit).

The Estes Park Winter Festival & Winter Trails Day is Saturday & Sunday, January 16th & 17th, 12pm - 5pm in the Estes Park Events Complex at 1209 Manford Ave.

It's about to get really cold up in here, Northern Colorado, so stay indoors this weekend, grab a hot cocoa and get ready to Netflix and chill (literally).

For a few days every January, the snowy streets and slopes of Breckenridge are taken over by vivacious Vikings, who have traded in their swords for ski poles, and are ready to celebrate fresh powder and a white winter at the mountain's annual Ullr Fest.

Fort Collins is no doubt one of the most spectacular places to call home, because I mean Disney wanted to be us. Cover it in snow, and it's a winter wonderland!

Treat your tastebuds and give a toast to the winter by indulging in some delicious Colorado brewed, seasonal beer.

When you woke up Thursday morning in Northern Colorado, there definitely was a chill in the air. But did you realize that in parts of the state it was so cold that records were almost broken?

Give the gift of preconceived generalizations this year! Madi and I made a list to help you out. These are sure to get eyes rolling this holiday season.
