    If you have listened to the shows, you know that I have changed my Mexico group trip philosophy a bit.  Use United Airlines non stop flights.  That hasn't changed.  Assigned seats, good service.  Use Amstar for transfers and excursions.  Best company, no change there.  Staying at beach front RIU Palace all inclusive properties.  Nope, nothing new there.  What has changed is that we are going back to a RIU property that we have visited before. The RIU Palace Kukulkan is such an exceptional ADULT ONLY property, so many of our recent group trip members that went with us to that resort loved it, that I have decided to go again in April.  PRICE, as I write this, is FABULOUS.  All that's required is a deposit to hold your reservation and price.  Contact Warren Erbsen, travel agent for the show, to reserve.

    NOTE: Yes, I will be taking baseball equipment again to help start youth baseball programs in Mayan villages on the Yucatan. If you can help me by supplying good condition used baseball equipment - bats, balls, gloves - please let me know.  My cell is 303-903-0017.  Thank you.

    Interview with Matthew Schniper


    April 20, 2024

    Matthew Schniper, former restaurant review writer and critic for the former Colorado Springs Independent, will be joining me for this studio show.  I will be tapping his extensive knowledge of the local dining scene, sharing a few of my thoughts, maybe referencing some thoughts from other restaurant "foodies."  I thought it might also be fun to see what places are currently thriving, either recent places or establishments that have been around for awhile, and compare those to the places I recommended almost twenty years ago when I published two dining guides for the market.  A great way to cover a lot of years and ground.  You are more than welcome to e-mail me your memories, your reminisces, places that you miss, places you wish would come back.  Tune in, should be fun.

    NOTE: Matthew will also be telling you about his FREE on line publication called Side Dish with Schnip where he visits, reviews locals establishments and helps keep us all up to date on "the scene."

    April 20, 2024

    I'll be in the Berkeley District of Denver broadcasting from the building featuring the combo of Devil's Cup Coffee and Rosie's Ice Cream.  Good coffee and delicious ice cream.  There is also a Devil's Cup in Littleton next door to Inside Scoop Creamery, the same coffee and ice cream served at the Berkeley location. Anytime is coffee time for coffee lovers, and April is also kind of the kick off for ice cream season, with over twenty flavors being offered.  My favorite?  A scoop of chocolate topped with a scoop of the coffee java chip.
