Previous Denver Trip

And sadly, I did not get to schedule time to see my favorite Denverites (Dr. Tectonic, or Julee). Alas.

It is worth mentioning, though, that I did get to see Beemer two weeks ago... when I was in Denver... on a completely different work trip. Some highlights included:

A day off wandering around Boulder--included a meander around the Pearl Street pedestrian mall, lunch, and postcards.



I even found a postcard that shows NCAR (The National Center for Atmospheric Research)--that's where Beemer works! See?


Got to hang out with Beemer and Greg--Jerry is away in Japan now, on an exchange term. Saturday was a hike out in Boulder Canyon with Beemer and his mom--who was a curator (?) at the Colorado School of Mines (?)... so she could identify everything out there on the trail. Pretty awesome.



Saw the movie "9"--a lovely little film, which puts together a wonderfully evocative world and atmosphere. However [spoiler!], we found that the ending was a little disappointing--not bad, just not a payoff in line with the rest of the movie. But if you are curious the award-winning 10-minute short film that got this movie rolling is on YouTube.


Anyway, thanks for the hospitality, Beemer! Was great seeing you!
