It's always in Denver.

Colorado is an awesome place for a family vacation. Too bad they don't hold the festival in the summer. Maybe the target audience isn't the 40-something dad set.

The fall is a great time to visit Denver.

 talk about a dream job

If you have a trust fund, want to live in a group house of 10 people, or live in Nebraska, but yeah, that would be niiiiiiice.

not sure what you are talking about
but $64 k with benies to drink and curate beer for the Smithsonian for 3 years sounds pretty choice to me

Let me know where you can afford to live on 64k a year in DC.

$64 k with benies to drink

Is it just one eggs benedict per day or do they give you one for every meal?

In Fairfax County, a schoolteacher with only a BA doesn't hit 64K until year 14.

you can barely live out here, in the trees and shrubs and raccoons and pick up trucks, for that amount.  but most people out here, would take the job for free to drink beer all the time.

Thanks for your contribution.

well get your point on that
but think if you didn't spend $100 a week on good beer
and travel is a part...so I could only imagine that you'd be visiting breweries all over the country on the SI dime

So I agree one could not live (and raise a family) in dc on that salary alone, but say your SO had a good 6 figure job...that'd be adequate

but be a buzz kill

DOOOD... I still think it's a cool job, just not feasible unless.... you have a trust fund, live in a group house, or Nebraska... or maybe you're under 25 with no dependents... or live 80 miles west of DC.

There are entire swaths of the country on which 64k a year for a single person is -- while not wealthy by any means -- good money you can buy a house and a new car and put cash away for retirement on. In fact, I'd say places where that is not the case are really the exception, not the rule.
