It sounds like you miss seeing it very much. <br />Hmmmmm...what do people take home form Colorado? I know Rocky Mountain Chocolates are supposed to be very good. I take a lot of photos wherever I go, and I also like to bring home a rock if I can find one ( hard to do in many cities!) I think memories are my favorite souvenirs!.<br /><br />Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-10177973760715400922014-06-26T20:12:16.272-04:002014-06-26T20:12:16.272-04:00I could live on bread (and butter)!

I have no idea what people take home from our area...First Nations artwork is big and smoked salmon would be among the top runners, I'm sure. <br /><br />Your sister brought back good mementos of New Brunswick. So...if we ever get to Canada's east coast, you will come meet us in New Brunswick, right?<br /><br />I like the common sense theory laid out in your post today.
