The People's Fair

Downtown Denver had a People's Fair today. Lots of arts and crafts and food. I figured I didn't have anything else to do today (that I felt like doing) so I hopped on the bike and rode on down. Found lots of stuff to spend my money on but didn't spend a dime.

I decided after that I would ride the rest of the way to my favorite downtown spot; Confluence Park. I sat outside and chatted on the phone with Mike for a while. I finally brought the camera along so I could show him where I keep describing:


The above photo is of the REI store (kind of like Cabella's) with the Starbucks attached. I like to sit right out front of those windows and people-watch.


The above photo is looking out over the park from my normal spot. People swim, bike, walk, kyak, play with their dogs, you name it!


The above photo in the same area just looking a little more upstream. People come here to practice rafting and kyaking. It isn't too deep and the rapids are short but good for practicing.


The above photo is looking even further upstream toward Elitch Gardens (the amuzement park).


The dreaded Invesco field - home of the Broncos....They are SOOO going to lose this year!

I bought a bike trail map while I was in REI so now I have all of the bike trails in Denver. I have a ton of work to do in order to ride them all...

I need to go make a birthday card for Alyx (yes, I know her birthday is today...)

C'ya!
