I skipped a few things that’s happened since our Kansas City trip a couple months back but I didn’t want to miss out on telling everyone just how awesome Colorado is and how badly I want to go back.
Our awesome friend Brad dropped us off at the St. Louis airport Friday morning and off we went as scheduled to Denver. Upon arriving excitement was rising knowing that all sorts of fun awaited us. We grabbed our luggage, was taken to our rental vehicle, and immediately went to go see our spectacular hotel room with a breathtaking view of the city.
Shortly after making ourselves comfortable we hopped back in the car and drove to Vesta Dipping Grill for one of the most unique meals we’ve ever had. The selections of dips were mind boggling so I just stuck to the chefs recommendations for each item. I think they did a great job of pairing the dips to the meats and cheeses.
Saturday morning we awoke bright an early to drive out to Boulder and take a two hour ATV tour up Colorado’s beautiful rockies. We both had a blast the the entire time and are now considering getting four wheelers ourselves or possibly some dune buggies!
On our way back we stopped off at Buffalo Bill’s grave and museum and saw many unusual pictures and antiques. We took all sorts of pictures and then proceeded back to Denver for our upcome lunch affair at The Cherry Cricket. Unfortunately an art fair was going on (with some jaw dropping pieces that I wanted) and The Cherry Cricket was too packed to get a bite for a significant period of time. We ended up eating at an Italian restaurant down the street and then returned to the hotel for a quick nap.
As soon as I awoke we got ready and went to eat at Beau Joes for the best pizza we’ve ever eaten! The odd thing about it (as if there was just one) was that they gave you honey to drizzle on the crust…honey…really?! We tried it and were shocked how perfectly that honey went with the dough.
I had a glass of wine to unwind from all the day’s activities. It did not go well with the pizza but I got a great buzz.
Shortly after that we headed back to our hotel wanting to get some rest before all of Sunday’s activities.
To be continued…
