Mile High 4th of July


Celebrating the 4th with a road trip to Denver was amazing!  Here's what we learned:

-The weirder the name, the cooler the brewery.
-BIGS Sunflower Seeds are made in  and distrubuted out of Denver.  For $2 outside the stadium, sea salt and black pepper is the baseball treat of choice.
-Cyclists do NOT wear helmets.  At all.  The only rational I could come up with is that the perpetual light headedness people experience from living at 5,280 feet above sea level causes the head to fall slower than the rest of the body.  Therefore, like a cat landing on its feet, the head floats gracefully to the ground following a bicycle fall.
-Pot is not 'legal' in the sense of being able to buy it in stores or smoke it on the street. 
-Things being more expensive for out-of-towners is not exclusive to Asia.  (First time fee of $16 dollars for 2 bikes for 1/2 hour.  At least next time it's free)
-Parents can take their kids to do cool things like watch the Avett Brothers at Red Rocks.  Treat them like adults but play with them like children.
-Good friends are hard to find.  Best friends, damn near impossible.

Love on the rocks... ain't no big surprise.
