The main feature this month is about childhood outdoor adventures, including advice on how to take a happy tyke on a happy hike, the best kid-friendly spots and advice on how to camp with your kiddos (it may be easier than you think). The camping season is not over yet parents! At least not until September.

Speaking of September...it’s back-to-school time. We highlighted some of our favorite after-school programs and shared three healthy packed lunches from wellknown blogger Kelly Pfeiffer of Nosh and Nourish.

I realized that I needed a beer to match the obsessive passion I have for these sports. It needed to be full-flavored and bold, but still easy to drink, low-ish ABV, and the perfect companion to any sweaty activity. The great thing is about Go Play IPA is that it doesn’t matter if you are out crushing a 100-mile bike ride, redpointing your hardest climb yet, or simply walking the dog, this beer is designed to get you outside to play.”

Perhaps the thing that really makes this house a home is how easily the family lives in the space, and that’s no accident.

“When we first moved in we knew we wanted to do the renovation, but we wanted to live here first,” Wendy explains. “We wanted to see how we used the space. Living here helped us realize what we would use and what we needed to change.”

Home on the Range IF YOU’VE EVER DREAMT OF STEPPING INTO WESTWORLD AND LIVING THE COWBOY DREAM, IT’S CLOSER THAN YOU MIGHT THINK. But rest assured, it’s not all whiskey and wranglin’ – you’ve got to take modern conservation and ecology practices by the reigns and get a taste of true grit to earn your spurs.

It’s a concept called ecotourism: or in other words, vacation with a purpose. At Ranchlands Camp, you’re invited to join in gathering a pasture, moving a herd, branding and helping in the leather room — a rare opportunity to go beyond being merely an observer of real-life ranching and make an impact.

Set on the vast prairie just south of Colorado Springs on the 87,000-acre Chico Basin Ranch, Ranchlands prides itself as an economically self-sufficient, agricultural-based business. It uses its livestock as a tool for manipulating the land to achieve biodiversity, management of invasive plant species, and restored riparian areas.

While they recognize that this way of life is important in our nation’s cultural history, they believe that embracing new ways of thinking is a kind of duty – after all, preserving the land and preserving the American legacy is one and the same.

When Ranchlands Camp opened its gates to visitors in 2017, it was never a question that this commitment to sustainability would be sacrificed. Instead, they would apply it to the typical camping experience and make it something entirely its own. With a mission to work together to live with the land, folks not only experience the beauty and simplicity that is nostalgic of the Old West, they learn about nature, ranching and the role they play in protecting the ecosystem.

Picture this: you rise on a cool morning among sagebrush and vibrant wildflowers, and a hearty, wood-fired meal awaits.

You fill up on fried eggs, blueberry cornmeal pancakes, granola and yogurt, and bison-potato hash; and devour a book from the ranch library. As camp host Kate Matheson, head wrangler Frankie Zwick, and camp cook Colby Richards show you the ropes of camp life, antelope stream across the plains, while cattle and their young calves graze nearby. A little exploration leads you to the leather shop, where you find Madi Hester and learn to make your own goods. Jill Soukup is nearby teaching horse painting and Cam Schryver, the World Champion cowboy, guides students through proper horsemanship. Learning and leisure carefully blend together: the sound of collective clamor harmonizes with coyotes howling on the arroyos.

In the evening, you enjoy a hot outdoor shower just twenty steps from your tent, wash away the dust from a long day on the ranch, and gather ‘round the campfire for live music, where the sun dips behind Pike’s Peak. You fall asleep under the stars. A kerosene lamp flickers against the canvas tent. You’re exhausted but satisfied.

Some describe this feeling like joy, others as fulfillment. Being a steward of the environment: it takes you beyond the appreciation of its visual beauty. That's because out here; you’re connected to your surroundings.

HAPPY TYKE, HAPPY HIKE Article Lisa Van Horne

To say that Alli Fronzaglia recommends exploring Boulder’s vast network of hiking trails with your children would be an understatement.

“Kids, with their boundless energy and curiosity, are natural hikers,” says Fronzaglia, co-founder of Boulder Hiker Chicks and volunteer naturalist and trail guide for the City of Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks. “Boulder’s Open Space is home to an incredible array of biodiversity, geological formations and historical sites just outside our back doors.”

And what better backyard could Boulder kids ask for? With 150 miles of hiking trails within the city and hundreds more countywide, Boulder is a natural playground ripe for discovery and excitement.

For kids, the benefits of hiking extend beyond providing valuable outdoor exercise.

GET IN THE CAR. While we’ve known families that enjoy backpacking with younger kids, camping seemed much more doable when we made our minivan a part of the equation. Whether staying at a campground or a dispersed site, car camping allows you to take along all of the kid gear you need — from pack n’ plays to high chairs — and provides a quick getaway if everything goes south.

MAKE IT FUN. A little fun goes a long way, but don’t be afraid to keep things simple. Kick it old school with card and dice games; learn a new skill like finger knitting or whittling together as a family. Our little ones have never met a scavenger hunt they didn’t love — make up your own or find a printable online. Bring bikes and scooters if the terrain allows, and don’t underestimate the entertainment of a ball or frisbee to toss around.

Remember: The most fun activities are the ones spent connecting as a family!

GRAPES & GRASS FESTIVAL

A SPECIAL TASTE OF SOME WINES THAT WILL BE AT BOULDER LIFESTYLE'S SECOND ANNUAL GRAPES & GRASS. 84

Boulder Lifestyle | August 2018

THE GRAPES LINEUP ARTICLE BENJAMIN WIESE | PHOTOGRAPHY LADD FORDE

WINE FESTIVALS CAN BE TEDIOUS AND DIFFICULT TO APPROACH FOR THE AVERAGE DRINKER. Without a refined tasting palate or a guide to the wines, sips begin to bleed together while the pressure to appropriately discuss a nice Bordeaux begins to mount.

For Boulder Wine Merchant Owner Brett Zimmerman, his hope is the Grapes & Grass Wine Festival will have attendees throwing all preconceived expectations about wine festivals out the window.

He just wants people to have a good time. It was part of why he got involved in the first place.

“This was an opportunity to be like ‘ok, let’s take away all pretenses associated with wine and break it down.' Wear your flip flops, drink out of a nice plastic glassware from Govino, listen to great music, enjoy the outdoors, and just take it down a notch.”

Zimmerman wants people to learn how to appreciate the fun of wine in an expectation-free environment and take note when a wine surprises them. With other deep conversations about to be had at other wine festivals or even at his own shop, Grapes & Grass should be a celebration of high-quality beverages while listening to some tunes.

“I would say just get a general idea of something that catches your attention. If it’s just a particular flavor profile or a different grape variety, take note of that, rather than trying to take detailed notes.”

Grapes & Grass will also offer an exciting new feature for attendees that allows people to download wine profiles onto their phone, rate the wines and even place an order request for a specific wine through Boulder Wine Merchant.

People may not be able to match Zimmerman's seemingly endless amount of insight, but they'll at least be able to find a new favorite wine or two from the festival.

WHAT COULD BE MORE BOULDER THAN A WINE AND BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL? 88

Boulder Lifestyle | August 2018

AT ONE POINT IN MY LIFE, THE QUALITY OF MY SUMMER WAS PREDICATED ON HOW MANY FESTIVAL WRISTBANDS DANGLED FROM THE STICK SHIFTER OF MY OLD LAND ROVER DISCOVERY. While things are definitely different at age forty-one (husband and father of four), my passion for music festivals has not waivered.

Living in Colorado affords music lovers a plethora of festival options. With so many of them taking place in our beautiful, high country, Grapes & Grass blends downtown Boulder convenience, with the pristine, lush grounds of the Highland City Club.

After selling out the inaugural event in 2017, the team here at Boulder Lifestyle saw what could make this event even more inviting going forward.

NEW TO GRAPES & GRASS + KID FRIENDLY - We heard you loud and clear parents. After a long work week, leaving your kiddo’s all day on a Saturday can make us all feel a little guilty. Kids 12 / under are now free with a paying adult. There will be a variety of kids activities from 10:30am - 2:30pm.

NOTE: Make sure to arrive early as an interactive Drum Safari for kids kicks off the event at 10:45am on Saturday 8/25. + TECH NERDS REJOICE - The Grapes & Grass team has partnered with Denver-based tech company, Spigot Labs, who specializes in festival technology. Guests can purchase, rate and save their favorite wines, all by touching their wrist band to censors at the vending areas.

NOTE: Once you find that wine you can’t live without, this technology allows you to put a purchase request for the product at The Boulder Wine Merchant, with a nice G&G discount, directly from your mobile device! + AFTER GRASS @ BOULDER THEATER - While the main event has to adhere to residential noise ordinances, and a 9:30pm curfew, you can keep the party going late into the evening with GASOLINE LOLLIPOPS / DRUNKEN HEARTS concert at the historic Boulder Theater on 8/25.

NOTE: Entrance to “After Grass” is complimentary with any 8/25 Grapes & Grass ticket.

FINN O'SULLIVAN PHOTOGRAPHY BAILEY BATCHELOR

MEET FINN OSULLIVAN. An incredibly talented and inspirational sixteen year old who has a beautiful passion. Creating music. This young lady who currently attends New Vista High School in Boulder, sat down with us recently at her CD release party to discuss all things music, inspiration and future plans.

HOW DID YOU GET INTO MUSIC AND DEVELOPING A LOVE FOR THE ART? I've been around music from an early age. I think that hearing both of my parents play and sing to me as a little kid definitely sparked an interest. I started off by playing the piano, and then eventually started taking voice lessons. Music always really spoke to me in a way that other things didn't, and I felt that it was such an important idea to have something that people of all genders, sexualities, races and ages could connect to. I'd always hear songs by artists I like, and wish that I could write something like that. Once I started playing guitar, I really fell in love with it, and eventually started writing songs that I actually felt proud of and was willing to share with people. It's something that I've always found myself to be extremely passionate about.

92

Boulder Lifestyle | August 2018

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR MUSIC STYLE? This is always a little bit difficult for me to pinpoint, but I'd say my music style is sort of indie/alt pop.

WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE ARTIST/SONGWRITERS THAT HAVE INSPIRED OR HELPED INFLUENCED YOU? I have a ridiculous amount of favorite artists, all of whom have had influence on my style. I think I take inspiration more from ideas than sound, and sometimes find concepts that really speak to me. I really love David Bowie, The Smiths and The Shins. Their lyrics are all very powerful, and their sound is really unique. I love Dodie Clark (she plays the ukulele too, so that's awesome!), and also Regina Spector, The Regrettes and Ezra Furman as well. I love finding artists that use strong metaphors, and I also really enjoy people who aren't afraid to push boundaries with their art, whether that's in a new sound, or in the lyrics that they write.

WHERE DO YOU HOPE FOR THIS PATH TO TAKE YOU? ANY FUTURE PLANS? As of right now, I'm hoping to go to college for music (although I'm not really sure where yet). It would be amazing to potentially form a band, and maybe even do a regional tour one day. The most important thing for me is that I'm able to keep writing and performing, and share my thoughts and ideas with an audience. My ultimate goal in writing is to create something that other people can connect to, and that they can feel like they're taking something away from my songs after hearing them.

WHERE CAN WE HEAR YOU? DO YOU PLAY ANYWHERE AROUND TOWN? I've started playing a lot more around local venues. I played at The Laughing Goat (I'll be playing there a few more times later this year), the Stone Cup in Lyons and Full Cycle. I'll also be playing at Innisfree pretty soon, and have some more gigs coming up later this year.

DURING THE HOT COLORADO SUMMER, FILLED WITH POOL DAYS AND HIKING TREKS, AND ITS DRY WINTER MONTHS WHEN THE SNOWY MOUNTAIN

TREATING CHILDREN'S ECZEMA IN THE DRY COLORADO CLIMATE

DAYS ENSUE, KEEPING YOUR SKIN WELL AND MOISTURIZED CAN FEEL LIKE AN UPHILL BATTLE. It can be particularly difficult when skin conditions, such as eczema, arise for you and your family. Even in these cases of particularly dry, irritated skin, and even in Colorado’s arid climate, it is possible to maintain nourished, healthy skin.

“Eczema is a skin condition characterized by itchy, red, rough patches of skin,” says Dr. Holly C. Paugh, MD, FAAD, and Board certified pediatric and general dermatologist with Dermatology Center of the Rockies. “It can be caused by multiple factors, including environmental interactions, and flares up when the skin barrier doesn’t function as well as it should.”

According to Dr. Paugh, eczema is very common in children, with about 60% of eczema patients being diagnosed in their first year and 85% being diagnosed by age five. While eczema often improves gradually as children age, the discomfort that comes with outbreaks can be treated and properly managed every day with a variety of practical solutions.

“Here in Colorado, it’s especially important to use a moisturizer twice daily since the climate is so dry,” says Dr. Paugh.

She recommends that children use only mild soaps when washing, apply moisturizing cream within five minutes of getting out of the bath or shower, and stick to creams made for sensitive skin with fewer ingredients and fewer fragrances. Depending on the severity of eczema, topical medications and antihistamines can also be used as appropriate.

In some cases, however, eczema needs to be professionally treated. Dr. Paugh notes that, if over-the-counter creams have not helped during an outbreak, visiting a dermatologist to design a treatment plan is advisable. If you notice open sores, crusting or yellow drainage from areas affected by eczema, it’s time to call the dermatologist, as escalating eczema can lead to secondary skin infections if left untreated.

While some of the causes of eczema are genetic, there are ways to lessen the severity of an eczema outbreak.

Throughout the year (yes, all year long), wear sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays, and stay shaded from the sun when possible. Be diligent in establishing a moisturizing regimen as well to ensure that you, and your family, maintain healthy, clear skin no matter the season and climate.
