Boulder

We took a tour of Boulder and the Celestial Seasonings plant. We got on a bus with a lot of other statisticians and left Denver around 9am. Along the way, we passed a rest stop, then a lady with a parasol, then a man. We turned to each other and said "geocachers." I turned to look at the man, and sure enough, he was intent on some box in his hands. Rich found that cache later in the week.

Here is some artwork that you might see on a box of tea.


Drinking tea at the tea shop. They make >150 flavors of tea, chai, and coffee. You can taste all of them in the tasting room.


A dress made of tea bags.


This is the sewing machine the Celestial Seasonings guys used to make the muslin bags they sold their first herbal teas in. They sold loose-leaf teas in those bags. No more loose-leaf now, but they are looking into it again, since it's becoming popular again. Their current bags don't have strings and tags so they can save money. Lots of money in strings and tags.


After the tour, we went to the Pearl Street Mall and had lunch. Food porn. Pasta Jay's. Nuff said.


Di tries not to be seen.
