Off to Denver!

Downtown Denver Hyatt...I like the textiles!
Bernie is here for a conference.
On Thursday he worked as a volunteer at a Children's Home doing some painting. Oprah Winfrey and some other organizations combined to upgrade both the grounds and interior of this old building.

Denver, Friday night




Bernie, Barbara, Laura and I all headed downtown Friday night for dinner. We went to "Ted's", Ted Turner's restaurant, and had buffalo (actually bison.)
Laura is holding the left overs wrapped up in foil in a swan shape.
We walked along downtown Denver's 16th Street Mall, where there is free transportation, and a colorful collection of people enjoying a warm spring night.
It is just amazing to think that there was a BLIZZARD here just four days ago!

Denver Botanical garden, flower show, and Laura's new pad

Bernie loves anything japanese related when it comes to flowers.
Cloud garden, humid. Same plants as in Houston...

This is the lobby of Laura's new apartment.

(Actually he was very sweet and I liked the shadow.)

Stone path that looks like a river bed.

Love the torn edges on the tulips!
