Chad Peyer - Hands At Ten And Two

Raven Narratives

Chad describes how becoming a new father brought him face-to-face with his ideas of who he was, and what it means to be a father. He told his story at the Raven Narratives events in early June 2024 when the theme was “weather”. Chad has lived his whole life in Colorado. He was born in Denver but his family quickly fled to the forests of Conifer where he was raised. Chad then moved to Durango in 2003 to attend Fort Lewis College and quickly was enamored with the area. Meandering through his 20s in a stereotypical Durango lifestyle he stumbled into local radio and has now been a small town disc jockey for over 12 years. After stretching the limits of part time jobs, roommates, and river tubing weekdays, Chad found love and had to become an adult. After marrying the amazing woman Sarah Kappel they moved to Ignacio and built their home. They filled it with two children: Calvin and Clementine, one dog: Todd Dogg, and one cat: Pro Kitty (she’s a professional cat). To this day Chad will tell you that being in the mountains is his favorite place, being at home his second favorite and if your event starts after 8:00pm he probably ain't gonna make it. Join us for the next Raven Narratives live storytelling events when the theme will be “friendship” on Friday, October 4th, at the Sunflower Theatre in Cortez, and on Saturday, October 5th, at the Durango Arts Center.
