Fun with Steve

Kurt's dad is back from Iraq and so he's come up to visit with us (and also to fix the PT Cruiser and borrow it for a while). It's been really nice spending time with him, since I've only seen him 3 times before now. He flew in last Wednesday and on Saturday we showed him around a little bit of Denver. First, we took him to the flagship REI store. It's just outside of the immediate downtown of Denver. It's huge and in an old converted train station. I forgot take pictures.
Then, we walked down the street for lunch at a fun place we found a little while ago:

My Brother's Bar. It's the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Denver. They play classical music and serve you phenomenal burgers. In an effort to try to blog more (even if it's not as exciting as our last summer) I took pictures. A few, but better than I have been. :)

Sorry it's dark. The flash didn't take for some reason.

On Sunday we drove up to Estes Park. It's the town outside of the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. It was a beautiful day down in Denver, but it was pretty cloudy as we drove farther into the mountains. Still, as we descended into Estes Park, we were welcomed by an amazing view.


Being Sunday, we couldn't do much more than drive around. We drove up to the national park entrance, got out to take pictures, then headed home.


Hooray for having something to blog about!
