Denver

IMG_2692I have always enjoyed traveling to Denver. It’s a friendly, big town with major league sports, great beer, astonishingly good sushi, a fantastic music scene, and an outdoorsman’s Mecca. While driving to my first meeting today, I started listing the reasons why I love Denver so much:

  • The Rockies have the most well thought-out, family-friendly stadium in baseball.  
  • Denver is the best launching spot for world class fly-fishing, camping, and hiking.
  • The Stanley Pappas Cigar Lounge, and Cigars on 6th both welcome new customers.
  • The downtown area has expertly eschewed food chains, and has a fine collection of privately owned restaurants and brew pubs.
  • I’ve been a Deadhead in Denver more than any other city on the globe.
  • Tattered Cover Books is a must for the avid reader.
  • Twist and Shout is the go-to spot for hard-to-find music – be prepared to spend at least an hour.
  • There’s something sublime about waking up to a view of the mountains.
