Denver and the Rockies

[Bugsinrugs]

First time to Denver helping my daughter move. So far I’m impressed. Aside from the traffic it’s clean, few homeless and people generally are friendly. Gas prices are a plus coming from California. Drove to Vail and was in awe of the beauty. Found a hike near Copper Mountain that was dog friendly and loved it. Wish I would have moved here thirty years ago.

I know you live in the hills, but Rocky Mountain altitude is a whole other thing. Drink LOTS of water and take a baby aspirin every day while you are up there.


No seriously.

Take the Coors brewery tour maybe, not sure how dog friendly that is.

Yes.. thanks. Could feel the altitude and the suns intensity. I always bring a ton of water and cliff bars.

If you're interested in the beer thing - do the Breckenridge brewery - south of town on Santa Fe. It's like the second Disney Land of beer. The first being New Belgium up north.

So far she loves it. She was able to bring her San Francisco salary with her. We have done a few brewery’s. Denver Brewery one. Really need to visit more before we leave.

Yeah, probably not too many homeless people in those ritzy areas, but the city is quite a different story!

I live in Loveland...just north, it is a pretty fine place to live. Estes Park has to be on the list as is Boulder.

Just be cautious in Boulder, they still think Obama is pretty well their saviour and Trump is the antichrist.

Don't ask me how I know, but a hint would be sunny days and MAGA!

Joe Walsh "Rocky Mountain Way", John Denver "Rocky Mountain High" and there's some other band from there, the name escapes me....

There must be a shortage of orange Kool-Aid in Boulder.

Is she hot?

I kid, but that used to get asked right off the bat. Denver is cool as is the surrounding areas, i live up north of Loveland a bit.
