For the Record
I was walking with a friend on the recpath in Silverthorne when we came upon the backside of The Pad
. That’s the new concept boutique hotel/hostel. I checked out the back patio and its view of the Blue River. It won’t be long now.
The project has been years in the making and a great example of making lemonade out of lemons. If the Dillon Town Council had more creative vision, this fabulous new gathering place would have been in Dillon. That’s where Pad owner Lynne Parrish Baer first bought property.
Dillon didn’t think it was a good fit. So a new site had to be found. Now that I see this sublime spot on the river, all I can think is Lynne and Rob Baer make the best lemonade ever!
For those interested in receiving a vaccine, here’s what you need to know.
How to make an appointment
As of early April, all Coloradans ages 16 and older are eligible to receive a vaccine. Because vaccines are in short supply, all residents should preregister for an appointment at CoMassVax.org
, which is used for the county’s drive-thru and neighborhood pop-up clinics.
When residents preregister, they are essentially putting their name on a contact list. Public health officials draw names randomly each week and notify those individuals about available appointments. Brian Bovaird, director of emergency management at the county, said this usually happens soon after the county receives confirmation from the state regarding how many vaccines it will receive for the upcoming week.

DENVER Johnson & Johnson vaccines are on hold for now after the CDC and FDA recommended a pause on Tuesday to look into extremely rare blood cots. The announcement is forcing counties to cancel Johnson & Johnson clinics. This is another curveball for all public health, said Dwayne Smith, Public Health Director in Elbert County.

On Tuesday morning, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and the Colorado Joint Vaccine Task Force told providers to temporarily pause use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The move came hours after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Food and Drug Administration released a joint statement recommending the same thing.
Moments afterward, Summit Community Care Clinic sent an email to patients notifying them that it canceled its vaccine clinic Wednesday, April 14, at Summit Middle School and Friday, April 16, at the Medical Office Building. Centura Health also released a statement saying it was going to pause use of the vaccine throughout its health system in Colorado and western Kansas.
