Denver

A Great weekend in Denver.

I came to Denver after spending the week working in Pittsburgh at a security convention. Ingrid was already in Denver with Lara Daniel.

On Saturday we went to the Gay Pride Parade in downtown Denver. It was fun and crazy. There was lot's of music, food, fun booths and an enormous number of really strane people wandering around. After enjoying the sights and sounds, we went to the sixteenth street mall, where we had an enjoyable lunch at the Rock Bottom Brewery. I enjoyed their beer of the day.

On the way home we stopped at the store to get food for dinner. We made a barbecue of steak and chicken. I enjoy eating at home.

Sunday morning we cycled along the scenic route, through the green belt, to the Stapleton Park. There was a farmer's market taking place. We "surveyed" all the wares before finding a shady spot under a tree, where we could enjoy our breakfast. We tried two types of breakfast tacos and some pancakes. Yum! We also got some organic coffee, tea and berry smoothies. It was most pleasant.

After cycling home, we went to Home Depot, where we bought all the required timber and accessories to start to build a headboard for the master bedroom. We almost finished the frame, before Daniel and I went to Colorado National Golf Course. We managed to get in about 12 holes before it became to dark. There were too many players on the course. It was VERY slow. The course was good, though.

We came home for a light meal and then had an early night after a busy day.

It's really enjoyable spending time with Lara & Daniel in Denver during the pleasant summer months. Stapleton is an amazing place; very Stepford-like.
