Last weekend we spent 5 days in Denver, Colorado, as Guy was attending the Geological Society of America convention. What a fantastic trip we had, enjoying beautiful weather, great food, lovely sights and extremely friendly people.
Everyone else was talking on their phones when we landed... so Alice joined in!
A gorgeous room in a funky hotel.
