Time for a non-official Supertopo Happy Hour. Steve Grossman will be in town so let's get together to visit!


When: FRIDAY, June, 20th, 2014
Time: 6:30 pm.

Where: Old Chicago in Superior (100 Superior Plaza Way, Superior, CO 80027-1975, [720] 304-2048). This is right next to Superior Liquor at the intersection of Hwy 36 at McCaslin).

You guys know the drill. Let me know who will be there on this thread and I'll get reservations taken care of. If the weather is nice we can be outside. If there is weather isn't cooperative - it's inside we go.

Share the invite with your friends!

Who is in (besides Brick)??

1. Why are the republicans wrong about everything?

2. Will Micronut ever climb El Cap?

3. Can I borrow your i-phone, I need to check the " Climate Change Skeptics" thread, I just thought of an awesome way to put down a stranger I've been arguing with for six years on a topic I know very little about"


Or perhaps yall just had a great time in the company of good friends, new and old, talking about real topics or nothing important whatsoever in a fun and rewarding and personal and very real way. Supertopo. Where the real and the make believe collide. Looks like a great time. Good job on ya, Crimpergirl.

Many thanks to Callie for being the organizer and I have to say what a wonderful community of STers we have in Boulder.

I managed to coerce Sally into coming out to Oakdale to join in the fun so It was even more rewarding.

Special thanks to Rodger and Jan for making the effort. Two absolutely stellar folks and always great conversation over pizza and pints.

Cheers until next time!
