4 Ways To Get Wine Delivered To Your Door, Including Local Wine Shops That Deliver

This article contains affiliate links. When you click on them and make a purchase, we might earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Read full disclosure here.

We love Colorado. After all, our very wise government officials included certain–ahem–stores on the “essential services” list. And, we are totally on board with you heading to the grocery store as little as possible, and waiting until you have a list of things to buy, rather than heading there for one or two items. But maybe you’re out of wine. [Read more…] about 4 Ways To Get Wine Delivered To Your Door, Including Local Wine Shops That Deliver

What’s Open Right Now In Colorado

Face it folks, everything — restaurants, bars, gyms, theaters, casinos — is now closed for at least 30 days or about April 15, with no guarantee that closures won’t be extended. So the world situation has cancelled your weekend, not to mention, this week or even next month’s plans. Just because you’re avoiding crowds doesn’t mean you have to socially “isolate”, go stir crazy or resort to Netflix or Disney+ binges everyday (though Baby Yoda and The Mandalorian do give us hope). Staying active can even help you keep the coronavirus at bay, not to mention keep you from going bonkers when the walls start to close in. [Read more…] about What’s Open Right Now In Colorado
