Denver Trip - Tim's take

Megan has been doing a great job chronicling our trip to Denver but I figured I'd give my own take on the trip.

When we flew in, and drove to Adam and Amy's, I noticed that the terrain in Denver is not what I anticipated. There are very few trees and it is flat. A little surprising but I wasn't holding it against Colorado. In fact, here is a view from Red Rocks Amphitheater that kind of shows the "plains" view of Denver.




The zoo was pretty fun until Ryan was overly tired and it was a million degrees. We went back to the house and just hung out and cooled off until we stuffed ourself with the extreme amount of sweets that Amy made for Joshua's birthday party.


(Not shown are the lion cookies...and yes, there are 2 cakes!!!)

The church that Adam and Amy go to is pretty amazing. Their worship leader is great and the "secondary" worship leader sounded great too. The music was cranked, too!!! They did play a Coldplay and U2 song during the worship service and I think they probably could've given a little intro to those songs before putting up the lyrics for everybody to sing because they may not be about Jesus, and people may get confused about the message of the song (I was confused about one of the songs and didn't realize it was a Coldplay song until about a month ago). I digress.

We did a few things that is obligatory for a Farmer Family Trip. We went to the local professional sports team stadiums and got our pint glasses. The Rockies trip was fun because we actually got in a game. The seats were absolutely amazing! Here is a point of view shot.



Adam got some free tickets the following Friday night and I took Ryan downtown to meet Adam for a Boys Night Out and the second Rockies game of the week.

We also took a trip to the Broncos stadium. If I would've known then what I know now, I would have prayed over the stadium that whoever would be officiating the game between the Chargers and the Broncos would call a fair game void of any costly mistakes for the visiting team. You know the rest. As far as pictures go, this picture shows how you are greeted while coming into the main entrance to the stadium.



If you can't tell, this is the ass end of the horse sculptures. Very welcoming, huh???

Since it was a work trip, I guess I can give a little insight to my week learning about private recreational offerings...

Nah, you could care less.
