My trip to Colorado with old friends

I went to Denver, Colorado back in June. Reunited with some old high school friends I haven't seen in like 30 years. I must say that Denver was the most amazing city. I was so impressed, I've never been there so I didn't know what to expect. I am sharing photo's of my trip through my eye. I took photo's and just gave them my touch.



Life is Art...This journey with friends has been my inspiration.



So my friend Marlene is why we went to Colorado. She lives there. I took this photo of this biker bar in a little town just outside of Red Rock. Marlene by the way is the one on the Harley with her friend Mark. Our other friend Dave is on the bike. The rest of the crew in the photo are just random people who got lucky enough to be pasted in....



Denver has the coolest old buildings and architecture. The building in the background I believe is the capital. At least I think that's what my friend Marlene said. With me in this photo is my buddy Mark.



Whoever this artist was I just loved their paintings. We went and had dinner at this quaint little winery/restaurant. I loved it...you can just plop in a corner on a couch and just sit there and eat and drink. My kind of place. In the back there was all this really cool art and this is one of them. The photo of the girls and I was taken in Red Rock. Mark will you go out with me? Yes-No-Mabey. This totally reminded me of grade school and jr. high. Silly girls.



We had to stop at this bar-only because it is the only bar left in Denver where you can smoke(yes I know a bad habit I need to quit.) We also heard they made the best drinks. This one is a vodka shot(don't remember the fancy name) It has leamon, sugar, vodka, and mabey something else but it was delish..



The one think that I did notice in Denver was all the art and sculptures everywhere. I loved just walking around the city-taking photo's.



In this photo above is Marlene our hostess and her friend Mark. Our first night in town.



This is a photo of Mark at Red Rock. I have never seen so many big red rocks in my life. There was the most amazing amphitheater there surrounded with red rocks. I hope that the next time I'm there I have the opportunity to see a concert there. Dave Byrne from Talking Heads was playing there the night we were there, wished I could have went, that would have been a great concert.



Create your own reality.....This is a photo of Me, Karin, Mark, and Judi..We are all best of buds.



Here's a fun photo of my friend Sue. If you ever fly Southwest airline you might have seen her. She's a flight attendant.



This is Judi just stroolling down the streets of Denver.



In the background of this photo is another great piece of art which was hanging in the restaurant we had dinner at...Mark loved this piece also. Let your mind tale you there.... and again. That is one of Mark's sayings.



Here is Mark, Marlene, Mark and Judi sitting in front of our hotel. We were waiting for the other girls to get ready so that we could move on to our next destination.



I love hanging in alley's. Here we are Mark and I taking that opportunity to hang out in an alley.



There was the coolest stairs right downtown where an outdoor mall was. Mark was surfing the rails. California boy thing I guess.



Me just being silly...I like to Make Believe I am.......



Could you imagine living in this building. I would love too. Already getting decorating ideas in my head.



Another cool old brick building. Ya looks like we moved in....



Part of Charlie's(Mark) Angels-Marlene, Sue, and Karin



Taking time to enjoy the scenery. Colorado a place where friends reunited. Enjoying great food-many drinks-lots of laughter-new experiences and new friends. A destination where individuals enjoyed life....til next time.
