In the words of Lady Gaga




You're not gonna reach my telephone.

Today. I woke up and decided that a trip out of Summit County was much needed. No agenda. My plan was to drive around and check things out in Denver. Grabbed Mike and hit the road. Drove up Loveland pass- 1st time for me. It was pretty awesome. I learned that the over-sized semis and tankers have to take Loveland because they are not allowed in the tunnel on 70. If they explode it could make the mountain crumble.. I made that last part up but it might have something to do with it. Drove to the beer store so Mike could brew his own.. well it's closed one day a week... guess what day that is? Yep. Monday. Which is today. Hah sad. Decided that I wanted to see the Garden of the Gods again.. Set out for Colorado Springs which is another 60 miles or so South of Denver. It was crazy to see Mountains on my Right and flatness on my Left. Garden of the Gods is just as pretty as I remembered it. Crazy red rock structures surrounded by trees and desert-like plants. We set off for a hike - it was super hot out but the hike was fun and easy... cept for the rattlesnake that snuck out in front of me. After hiking and looking at the balancing rock back to Denver it was. Took a random road somewhere in Denver and drove by a park.. and through a pretty neighborhood. Parked at a meter.. threw some quarters in and hung out on 16th street. It was nice to be in a city again and just people watch while drinking a Denver-brewed beer. After returning to the home slate.. we ate some noodles and co anddddd went to see 'How to Train your Dragon' in 3D. It was realllly cute...and I want a Dragon now. One that blows fire preferably. weeeeeeelp.. Time to get 5 hours of sleep before work in my lonely apartment. I hope my roomies make it back home safe! I'll miss them.
