Mell and I met and worked together starting in the late 80s. Our working relationship led to some "almost unbelievable" life experiences we share plus the opportunity to work and hang out together in various spots on the global map.
Mell calls Denver home and we usually find a way to connect when I find a way to get to town. Another good catch up.
Hopped on the wrong train on the way and it landed me several new surprises to take in and enjoy.
A comfortable day to wander. I have been here many times over the years - always a great spot. Went off in some new directions to see what else I may find. Didn't disappoint.
The opportunity presented itself so I decided to be off for a couple days in Denver. Reasonable weather and several friends to connect up with after a long, long hiatus.
Tried to take in the Art Museum - but due to Covid and huge remodel just a partial opportunity to explore the place. Enough for me for one day however.
Great lobby piece of blankets from a range of different people with the story of each of the blankets attached to it.
We thought it was a good day to kick off Friday rides - a bit chillier than we thought it would be. But it was sure worth it when we were done.
Found a new "stop" last weekend and checked it out once again today - a keeper for sure.
All vaccinated so we took a night out to enjoy a great spot and a lots of "useless" conversation - but all good and lots of fun.
I don't remember seeing wild turkeys around for most of my time in the Twin Cities Metro. Now, whether I am driving, biking or walking I seem to run in to turkeys. They just seem to be everywhere anymore.
A few years back they were even wandering around my street one morning - we'll see if they become regulars this year since they seem to be everywhere.
This was yesterday, by the UofM - a usual spot to run in to them - but also not their usual time to "hang out" with the rest of us.
