  The Boulder Greenbriar has a long history, and a long history with Debi and me.  If Baccarat bottles could speak, the history of Boulder since 1873 and of the Greenbriar are told by a decanter. As we  are again celebrating an anniversary with a dinner at the Greenbriar, this one being our 41st Anniversary, it recalls this history in the tales of the Baccarat Louis Tres (Louis XIII) crystal decanter.  The custom at the Greenbriar and elsewhere is giving the empty Baccarat  bottle to whoever finished it  At the time we thought the cognac  it to be quite expensive at about $20 an o…

My son was only a year younger than those first graders in that classroom, a coincidence I’ve dwelled on. It’s estimated that there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 400 to 500 million privately owned firearms in America. Is tha…
