The HOA Madness Continues
Without any contact, the president came by and immediately called 911. Several fire engines, ambulances and police cars showed up at the house. Since we were already in Nebraska and Joe was the only one there, he had to deal with the situation. I then chatted with the president who was incredibly disturbed that I hadn't called 911. He thought I was putting the entire neighborhood in danger and it could have ended up in a massive explosion like the California incident a few weeks ago. For real?!? We were actually at dinner with one of Boulder's firefighters and he said that the line that exploded in CA was 3 meters in diameter and this was only 3 inches and because it was outside and not in the house, calling Xcel would have been absolutely sufficient. Whatever...
After the fire department turned the gas line off, the gas company (Xcel) came by to fix the meter and let us know that whatever caused the accident also created a gas leak under the deck and we needed to have a plumber repair it, have the city of Boulder test it then Xcel would turn the gas back on! Luckily the only thing our entire house uses gas for is the basement fireplace - which obviously in not in use right now.
After informing the HOA committee of the entire issue and letting them know that it must have been our lawn care service (as we don't regularly go running into our own house), they contacted them and took care of all the costs.

A true hero

Michael has not only been a great mentor, friend and father-like figure to me but a huge inspiration. He has recently changed his athletic focus from Ironman to my true passion of XTERRA. He competes with a guide and has been absolutely kicking butt. He will be competing at the USA Champs in Ogden next weekend and again in Maui for the World Champs in late October. Wish him luck and feel free to contact him through his website if you have any questions :) I love you Michael!

A trip to the dentist
Since I've lived in Michigan, I've always gone to my favorite dentists in the world. Dr. Doolin and Haddad are both avid athletes and have always treated me so well. Unfortunately I don't go back to MI twice a year anymore and I'm a huge stickler when it comes to teeth being clean so I opted to find a new dentist here in Boulder.
After a great referral from Dr. Doolin, I chose to see Dr. Birnbach from Boulder Smiles. Great dentist and couldn't have been happier with my decision. Their offices are right along the creek and their staff is wonderful. The best part is that I referred Bryce to them at my appointment and when I came home later that afternoon, I had a giant bouquet of flowers on my kitchen table as a thanks for bringing Bryce on board. I'm thinking they might like me! Now I just need to get the rest of the house over there :)
