I told her we are doing okay, but it doesn’t quite work that way. Paying the transport, testing, and processing fees for the milk while feeding the cows and growing the heifers leaves little room for profit. Some years you’re just working to break even.

Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It seemed to contradict comments made by Gov. Jared Polis, who said the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.
