denver may not be a 'cow' town..
but i'm willing to bet you don't have any favorite rappers from Denver.. in fact you don't know of any...

I have lived in Denver twices and boulder once, and even leadville...I say cow town in a loving way....no disrespect intended.
I will give it up to the DAM for being very progressive since the late 80's.
They showed maplethorpe before he was controversial...do they still have a cocktail hour every monday night?

Yeah my parents just moved there last December and I haven't been in that area since I was a kid... so we will see.

yeah madirish. i lived in the springs for a year cause of work, and it was definitely an experience ;)
i will say this about CS...being that close to pike's peak and the national forest was really priceless. from denver you have to drive a ways to get to decent camping spots but in the springs they're right there!

LOL
w/o question- cow town.
and no harm/disrespect/etc, etc but the springs is honestly one of the weridest towns/cities on this planet. i am sure your family is totally cool though. : )

Denver's not a cow town. It's the hub between L.A, Chicago, and New York. In my opinion there is a ton of cool stuff going on here right now.

right on jev, the DAM is a nice place to start. if you want to have dinner at an interesting place downtown (and aren't vegan or vegetarian) you should try:
it's a denver classic and you can try all types of game. it's one of those places everyone goes to with visiting relatives...you get the idea.
i also recommend hiking around the red rocks area if the weather is nice. there are some dinosaur tracks in the area which is always fun for kids.

thanks spendogg & sputnik
I know we may go to Royal Gorge, Garden of the Gods in CSprings, New Belgium and O'dells in Fort Collins one of the days but we are open to both city and outdoor things... we love both.
Any good museums? Shopping? I am open to hear about good trails to go to also.
cheers,

Arsenal plays at 7 or 8AM Denver time on Saturday, and I was hoping that there might be some kind of bar open to catch it at.
:D

(Jul 24 07, 12:20)You fucking cunt. Seriously? Are you really asking me where you can catch a gooners game?
Fado Irish Pub next to the baseball Stadium donwtown.
Cunt.

well jerome if you must know - the beers are for you and your douchebags. the rest of the stuff are things miles needs to get me out on the field for halftime.

... That sounds troubling to be quite honest, haha.
I got my ticket the other day (plane) and I will be there Friday morning, until Monday afternoon. Game tickets go on sale the 28th I believe.
Not exactly sure how many people are coming, but I think at least 4 of my douchebag friends thus far.
I'll let you know more information when I get it, so you can slit my throat in an alley and leave me for dead, haha.

it involves 6 cups of coors light, 16" of rubber hose, 5 yards of duct tape, 12 cherry jolly ranchers, forceps, a mini football, and miles the mascot.

(Jul 24 07, 12:32)uh oh, are you doing that "going commando" bit and dropping trou at inopportune times again?
;)
- flavorful0
Hahah, can I guess what it is?
3 punches in the face.

do you want to do something in town or outside, like go to a great trail?
there's a ton of stuff to do here so it depends on what you're up for
