Memorial Day weekend heralded the official return of festivals, camping, picnics, Tevas, pools and margaritas on the patio. And while there are plenty of old favorites to return to, from Red Rocks shows to your favorite ice cream shop, and from the Telluride Bluegrass Festival to SUPing on Cherry Creek Reservoir, sometimes it is nice to try something new.

Pedal a swan boat at Washington Park Washington Park has always been a good bird-watching spot, but it’s even better with the addition of 18 swan-shaped pedal boats that people can rent.

Bubble tea has been a staple in Asia since the ‘80s, but its popularity is exploding stateside. The often technicolored Taiwan-born drink is made with a hot or cold tea base combined with milk, fruit or fruit juices and finished with “bubbles” or “bobas” — soft and chewy tapioca pearls that sit at the bottom.

The adventure no one needs this summer is having their car run out of gas — or battery charge for hybrid and electric vehicles. As the state adds more charging stations strategically placed along scenic byways, electric vehicle drivers have more chances to see Colorado scenery. As of February, 65% of the Centennial State’s historic and scenic byways are “electrified.” The Colorado Department of Transportation’s Scenic & Historic Byway Commission announced that 17 of Colorado’s 26 byways have electric charging stations within 100 miles.

Dear Readers: As I announced last week, my final “Ask Amy” column in this space will run on June 30. (Readers will be able to find me through my newsletter and on amydickinson.com.) Until then, I’ll occasionally open my files and rerun some previously published Q&A. Here are two: Dear Amy: I learned that my boyfriend might have cheated on me. He told me that a friend of his saw a female (that the friend used to date) on a dating site. The friend wanted to get revenge on this ex, so he used my boyfriend’s old profile from the dating site to catfish her. However, from everything I saw, it seems like my boyfriend was not the middle man, but the primary person. All the messages between the two were from my boyfriend, and the messages from him sounded just like him — not like his friend. My boyfriend and I got into an argument, and he left the house. At the same time he was arguing with me, he was texting the girl, wanting to see her. He went to her house that night and when he came home, he was acting differently. Later I spoke with the female involved and she told me that she and my boyfriend had in fact slept together.

I need a second opinion: How does this situation sound to you? Do you think he cheated? Should I put this behind me, move on, and accept his explanation? — Wondering and Worried Dear Wondering: Rome’s Bocca della Verità, or “Mouth of Truth,” is an ancient marble mask, which according to the popular medieval legend will bite the hand off of anybody who has told a lie. The idea is that you place your hand inside of the mouth of this large sculptured mask, and then let the magic of the Bocca della Verita be your lie detector. (You might recognize this monument from the wonderful Audrey Hepburn/Gregory Peck movie “Roman Holiday.”) Let me put it this way: If your guy had placed his hand inside the “Mouth of Truth” while spinning his entertaining tale (about his friend using his account to catfish a woman), he would be left holding a bloody stump. So yes, put this behind you.
