Leaving for Denver on Tuesday [View all]

And I have made some plans:

A co-worker and I (out of a group of 7) are using a car-sharing thing to pick up a car at the airport, then making a bee-line to Rocky Mountain National Park (day pass already purchased). We will get there after the timed entry period is over, so hopefully won't be too big of a line to get in. Driving up Trail Ridge Road, stopping at Alpine Visitor Center, then trying to catch the sunset/stargaze. Then we haul ass back to the airport and get a ride to the hotel in the Denver Tech Center.

On Wednesday, we are considering catching a soccer game.

Thursday is open---may go to Linger Restaurant (located in a former mortuary) then hang out on Larimer Square and/or the 16th Street Mall.

Friday: Widespread Panic concert at Red Rocks

Saturday: Flight back home leaves at crack of dawn, so will probably be running on 2 hours of sleep.

Should be tiring but fun!
