When I see bloggers saying they got items for fifty cents or a dollar at Goodwill, I'm like, "Why can I never find cheap stuff?" Then I remember it's because I live in Boulder.

I should totally go be a tourist there ;-) Meanwhile, you can come start a new business in Boulder. Ha!<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.

I was asking because I read an article in, I think, Inc. magazine extolling the many virtues of Boulder as an entreprenurial hotbed. <br /><br />We have a Boulder here: Gatlinberg, only it's a hotbed of not environmental hippies, but indiscriminate tourists. If they skipped the Ripleys and fudge and Dollywood and went straight to the mountains for a hike we'd all be better off. <br /><br />But don't get me started either. :)Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04368208049564438565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726963612523301492.post-28567292915368891792014-01-01T08:06:28.326-08:002014-01-01T08:06:28.326-08:00I get it!!

Even though it is literally 10 minutes away from my town, it is like a whole different world! I think I will just keep my cowboy boots on and enjoy my quiet 2 acres where my son and husband can pee off the back porch (gross, but true story).<br /><br />Happy New Year, Friend!<br /><br />~EricaThrifterSistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534524822325441476noreply@blogger.com
