yeah it is a nice city.I've been to coors field the baseball stadium to watch the rockies play. I remember flyin into the airport and thinking thats the weirdest looking airport I've ever seen. we went to a nice bar while I was there named LoDo's bar and grill which is near the stadium

during the summer at city park they had free music shows where you had a beautiful view of the city. just sat on the hill and listened to some live music.
I think the seasons proabably over by now I imagine.
anyways glad you liked it,I did.

ya the airport is pretty distinct, isnt it !! I'll check out the bar you mentioned in the coming days. Well its approaching fall, but its really bright and sunny during the days, which is fab !

Ahh, Mile high city.

I used to travel to Denver regularly.
I really like it. Really nice people, fresh air, the snow.
Remember snow folks ?

We used to go up to Winter Park in the Rockies and go snow mobiling.
I miss my job. :(

I remember once we had a big convention at the Adams Mark Hotel.
The week after, we were told, the NRA were going to be there for their convention.

I got back home here and the hotel was on TV.
I said "that's were I stayed" just as the TV showed Charlton Heston
waving his rifle saying "only from my cold dead hands".

Oh dear. America. What are we going to do with you.
