Rad Things (to) Do - April 2026
Well, it looks like Old Man Winter just decided to play hooky this year. That means April is now the unofficial start of summer. This also means it’s time for the Colorado Rockies to return to Coors Field and, much like Norman Osborne resisting the urge to put on the Green Goblin mask as it’s talking to him in the hit 2002 movie, “Spider-Man,” the author must refrain from making jokes about the Rockies for the next six months. Since it’s basically summer now, it’s time to bust out the shorts, sunglasses, and sunscreen, and take advantage of the weather and enjoy a stacked month full of Rad Things (to) Do!
