A Colorado hodge podge, aka Tapping the Rockies

Went  to a Rockies game, not the best team in baseball, but a lovely park. Bleacher  seats for $15 included a $6 meal  and drink credit. Plus coupons for dollar hotdogs  and half price beer before first pitch. Check out the sunset view of the actual Rockies from the park.

Casa Bonita, watch the South Park episode, you'll  understand

Jim's  bison obsession continues in Boulder 

Visiting Miller Coors, surprisingly,  the banquet beer is delightful

Yes, that's a young Mark Harmon, you're  welcome

Rocky Mountain National Park, aka spying on animals. Here we spotted two downy immature great horned owls having a snuggle.

Big horn sheep. Did you know they have honeycomb  like skulls that absorb impact when they butt heads? No concussions.  Why isn't the NFL studying this for helmet technology? 

Me, on top of a big rock, in an even bigger field. This is the alluvial fan, a debris field from a massive flood a few years ago.

Last view of Colorado. Thanks for hosting us. I think of the state as being like ME, except instead of ocean, they have mountains. Delightful!
