Rocky Mountain Winter Games

Are you a fit Boomer athlete who still has the passion to compete?

If so, then it's not too soon to start thinking about competing in the Rocky Mountain Senior Winter Games scheduled for February 2010.

The tentative schedule for 2010 is: Pasta dinner, Sunday, Feb 21; ice skating and alpine events, Monday, Feb 22, and the Nordic events for Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2010. The pasta dinner and awards will be held at the Senior Center in Frisco Colorado. Mark your calendars and check out the 2009 website for more information on what to expect at the events. http://www.2009seniorgames.org/

Asti d'Italia

After hearing about a new local restaurant, Asti d'Italia,

from friends and on the Warren Byrne Studio 1430 The Restaurant Show, I was excited about having lunch there on Saturday with a few friends.

Lunch prices were quite reasonable, but I found the menu limited. Overall, I was disappointed with our dining experience. The service was very slow even though the restaurant was not crowded and the food was mediocore.

I had the vegetarian soup of the day and salad. The soup was so salty that I had to send it back. The salad was just okay. But my friend who had the Duck Confit Salad thought it was outstanding. Perhaps, we just were there on an off day, so for another viewpoint, check out the review in the Denver Post:
