Water

Wintertime at Denver’s Four Mile Historic Park evokes visions of a past that intrigues me. The first settlers of our country were tough people who lived hard lives and help pave the way for us to live easier lives at the foot of these magnificent Rocky Mountains.

It would be fun to bring someone back to see how we live our lives today. I wonder if they would appreciate an iPhone?

Imagine

We are so used to comforts in every facet our our lives. I have a hard time imagining what it would have been like, living in the 18th century, crossing the country in a covered wagon on muddy or dry and dusty trails.

Obviously our forefathers were an ambitions bunch. I’m glad they had their adventurous spirit, otherwise Denver never would have been settled. Then where would I live? N.J?

The rich green and gold of autumn is upon us. The view at Denver’s City Park always is delightful, no matter what direction you look.

Enjoying the Park

Those B-cycles certainly get around! In fact at this time and location I noticed there weren’t any available! I hope business if good for them, it’s such a cool concept!

This is Riverfront Park, located in Denver’s Riverfront. The park is very active, this weekday at noontime there were plenty of people pursuing their fitness!

Winter Trees

If these trees could talk, I would listen.

Ride to the Sky

This road to the top of Mt. Evans only opens after Memorial Day. Up at this height the road is not maintained during most of the year. It’s an awesome drive, not for the faint of heart!

Eve of Spring at Red Rocks

Overlooking the famous Red Rocks Amphitheater, spring is about to burst out. Few people know that this is actually a Denver park, even though it is located in Jefferson County!
