How did they rate? As someone who has lived in Boulder for the better part of the last decade, I’d like to think I have a pretty clear understanding of what it means to live inside The Bubble. What I mean to say is, I think I understand what kinds of people exist here, and […]
How did they rate? At Dope Directory, we’re all about you finding the dispensary that fits in with your taste. Hell, that’s why we exist. Now, I’ll be the first one to tell you that there is no “generic” cannabis user, and with varied interests and personalities comes varied preferences in taste. You’re saying to […]
Although over a year has passed since retail marijuana was made legal in Colorado, dispensaries are still opening up, finding that Colorado’s market is far from saturated. Perhaps this trend is a bit more noticeable in my hometown of Boulder, Colorado. The town is not that big, so any time anything new comes in, Boulderites […]
How did they rate? If we’ve said it once at Dope Directory, we’ve said it a thousand times: long gone are the days of “pray your dealer has a good batch this time.” No, Colorado has advanced so far from how it was just a few years ago, that smoking some ganja, and having no […]
How did they rate? By square mileage, Boulder might be a small city, but certainly not without its share of must-see destinations; Chautauqua Park, Folsom Field, and the Taco Bell off of Baseline and Broadway (often called the busiest Taco Bell in the country!), just to name a few. Naturally, visitors to Boulder are definitely […]
How did they rate? With the advent and proliferation of concentrates, marijuana culture is definitely shifting. I remember, during my brief stint in Amsterdam, what “dabbing culture” started as. You’d ride your bike down a narrow brick street, and find yourself in a room with ten seats or so. You’d order your hash, or your […]
How did they rate? It’s no secret that Boulder is a town of runners. This becomes exceedingly apparent when you’re driving around on a weekend morning, and the throngs of people in running shorts, jerseys, visors, and ultra-polarized sunglasses come streaming past your car. It’s almost ridiculous really. I’ve seen people literally running in the […]
How did they rate? Can marijuana change the world? Over the last six months, I’ve delved deeper into the cannaverse than I ever have in my entire life, and the results have been interesting, to say the least. Perhaps we in Colorado are just on the front lines of history, or perhaps I’m just pretentious. Seriously […]
How did they rate? Head north out of Boulder, drive through the winding mountain roads (that were completely wiped out in the floods in 2013, but are back in action today!), until you make it to a glorious, pristine mountain lake. Fight your way through the throngs of people, especially on a sunny summer day, […]
How did they rate? Rainy days in Colorado are typically rare, but for some reason (and I don’t know if I can blame this on El Niño or not), overcast and humid days are becoming a daily occurrence in Colorado. My guess is all the collective rain dances that elementary school students have been performing […]
How did they rate? I’m a huge fan of Boulder’s West End. This is the side of downtown Boulder that houses several of Boulder’s higher-end cocktail bars, restaurants, and boutiques. It’s also one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city, boasting several Victorian-era homes to deliver history-junkies like myself to a different time entirely. And hey, […]
How did they rate? Unless you’re talking about injuries you’ve sustained, or diseases you’ve contracted, or parking tickets you have to pay, having something “new” is always an exciting feeling. I remember right out of college, I felt like I was a hotshot with a sweet job, so I had to buy a new car. […]
How did they rate? Full disclosure: I’ve lived in Boulder County for seven years, and in the city for the vast majority of that time (except for a brief stint in Amsterdam, and a less-than-brief sentence in Longmont). Living in one place for long enough gives you an interesting perspective on the city that you […]
How did they rate? When I was in third or fourth grade, my Denver elementary school assumed it would be a great idea for us city slickers to get a taste of farm country. So naturally, they took us to a “farm.” What I didn’t know (or realize because I was not the brightest of […]
How did they rate? Allow me to talk to you a little bit of a small fantasy of mine. One day, when I have amassed enough capital to do so, I would like to drop everything, and build myself a small cabin in the woods. Now, it’d be nothing spectacular on the outside; just enough […]
