Day 10 Denver, Colorado

What happened? It was 65 yesterday and it's 15 this morning, this is bullshit. Oh well!  Sylvia figured she might as well do laundry this morning while I walked the mile and a half up to the REI store. It was a pretty cold walk but was worth it because the store's amazing. It's in an old renovated factory on the river and it's beautiful. It opened at 9 and was packed by 9:30. I didn't buy anything because I had the long walk back, brilliant. By the time I got back to the hotel Sylvia had been to the gym and finished the laundry so we went for a short walk and a light lunch at the Yard House. It was okay, but only worth going to if you like a huge variety of beer, it has over 100 on tap. It was too cold to do much more walking so we looked around a few stores and went back to the hotel. For dinner I talked Sylvia into walking down to Larimer Square and eating at one of the many excellent restaurants located there. We stopped in Ted's Montana Grill to warm up with some kind of toasty refreshment. Then not wanting to go outside any more, we decided to eat there. Sylvia had bison meatloaf and I went with the bison short ribs, very good. We were both happy until Sylvia realized we had a very cold walk back to the hotel. There was a muttering sound all the way back.

One the reasons I keep writing about where we ate and what we ordered was to use this blog to settle some future disagreements about what we did and where we went on our trips, and we do use it frequently. However in addition to that, it usually makes one of us wrong and one of us smile which does create other issues.

We're leaving Denver early tomorrow morning for a long drive over the mountains to Provo, Utah. At least that's the plan.
