This Christmas, Adam and I hit the open road for a little holiday adventure in Aspen, Colorado. It was our first trip to Aspen and we fell in love with this charming Rocky Mountain town. It’s a winter wonderland – chock-full of outdoor activities and...
Dog Friendly Restaurants
How often do we long to take our dogs somewhere where the food is fabulous and they are actually welcome? I have sunk my teeth into one too many roadside quick bites because of a “no dogs allowed” policy. I have almost lost it driving around in circles...

It’s true. Not everywhere is dog friendly (weird, I know) – work, travel, errands – which is why it’s a relief to find such a stellar place as ruff. The boutique hotel has an eye for detail from its socially entertaining, dependable, and nurturing...
