Denver

I wanted to get this one in before the Super Bowl because of all the Broncos pride we saw in Denver.  My husband and I took a quick weekend trip to Colorado for some snowboarding over MLK.  Neither of us have ever been to Colorado or Denver.  The beautiful mountain ranges and amazing mountain slopes were just a couple of the reasons why I think people fall in love with Colorado.  The traffic – not so much.  I guess we weren’t the only ones who thought it was a good idea to go to the mountains over MLK.  Although the lift lines were long, I’m glad we went!  In Denver, we hiked in Red Rocks Park, toured the Coors Brewery, ate in Larimer Square, went to the Colorado History Museum, and tasted some craft brews.  Good trip!  And I might just be rooting for Denver in the Super Bowl after this trip – PFM!

Blue Bear at the Conference Center. We learned in the Colorado History Museum that 1% of new construction budgets must go towards public art. Here is one of those public pieces of art!
