Reminder: Concerts are back! I Googled “Denver Concert” and found lots of them all over Colorado! I do want to say, though, please get your COVID and Flu vaccines before going to them. Wear a mask if you are an “at risk” person – even if someone is giving you the “evil eye”! Stay safe so you’ll be around for the winter concerts, too!
