But last July we had a doozy of a storm. Besides denting cars, breaking windows on cars and houses, and destroying gardens, these … (5 comments)

Life in Arvada is colored by many unique and popular merchants, such as La Patisserie Francaise French Bakery.
La Patisserie Francaise has been a well-known fixture in it's convenient spot next to Target at 80th and Wadsworth for many years, but is now under new ownership. I visited the shop with a couple of friends on its opening morning, August 5, and met the new owners - Jeffrey & Lisa Van Putten.
