It feels like yesterday when I was finally seeing the green shoots come up from the thawed ground. Now, leaves are beginning to fall, the Aspens are turning in the mountains, and there is a chill in the air. Just today weather reports indicate measurable snow falling in the higher mountains. The real estate market here continues to be strong, with limited inventory as usual. Sellers are pumped, buyers are frustrated as they wait for homes to hit the market. Yet, people are finding homes in the midst of tight competition and rising prices. If you are in Golden or wondering what is happening locally, here is a quick list below of the latest happenings.
Trees Changing on Clear Creek--Be sure to get out and walk the paths along clear creek in October as the trees are just beginning to change. Usually the weather is still great, and the colors along the creek are fantastic. Take 10th street from Washington Avenue and head West to the parking lot past the ball fields on your left hand side.
On October 11th, the Knock your Boots of Beer and Chili Festival is back. This is a great time to test out the best Chili and beer that Golden has to offer. Even is 2-5 pm between 12-13th St on Arapahoe. For more info check out http://visitgolden.com/
On October 28th, the Golden Cruise makes its final cruise of the season. Meeting at the Library Parking lot of 10th Street the cruise is great for families and friends alike. Come cruise Golden on any type of bike and enjoy beer from New Belgium Brewing Company! For more info visit their facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TheGoldenCruise
On October 31st, the Halloween Crazy Days take place. The Golden Chamber of Commerce and the downtown merchants get together and offer a safe trick or treating opportunity for kids. Trust me, there is more candy than your kids could ever dream of. Tons of people come out to this great event. For more info visit the www.goldencochamber.org
