Can't Not Be Mentioned.

I mentioned it in passing with the bookstore blurb, but I cant just let my Denver trip be summed up with just a few words about some silly book summaries.

I had originally intended to take my dad to Alaska on a fishing trip as my not-working-after-China-bucket-list-item summer trip. He punked out.

So when Sheriann called to say she would be in Denver on business the first week of August, I demanded to crash. My lovely, Nick, lives there with his lovely and I just like it there.

Whoa, do I like it there.

I spent a week in Breckenridge, Denver, Colorado Springs, Boulder, and many surrounding little spots running, walking, hiking, rafting, biking, jumping, and laughing.

You must make this place a must-go.

1. I proclaim my victory over the Flatirons by stealing this here bandana. Such a rebel.

2. Peak train ride to the top of Pike's Peak. 90 minutes of high altitude transport.

3. Garden of the Gods, super rad and the most fun playground for dirt lovers.

4. Rocks losing by a lot. We're real broken up about it.

5. Big pile of rocks on the Flatirons hike.

6. From the top of Pike's Peak

7. A bike and a book. Loverly.
