Red Rocks Amphitheatre Visiting Denver is a challenge – it’s 5,280 feet above elevation – 1600 meters for those in metric. I spent much of my first day in downtown Denver, which rests just below this elevation, visiting with a friend. It took only 4 hours before I was winded – breathing heavily, feeling […] It’s been awhile since I’ve rumbled a bit about Wyoming, and it’s now time. Mainly because whilst in Denver I stopped by the Tattered Cover, looked through the bargain books, and for $6 picked up a copy of The Daily Coyote: A Story of Love, Survival, and Trust in the Wilds of Wyoming. The book […] I was there. It dawned on me Tuesday morning, as I pulled out of the Irma Hotel parking lot, that I hadn’t seen Cody’s surroundings before.

Saturday was wedding time: the German Bride and American Groom were getting hitched, all whilst “naturally” dressed. It was the fourth wedding of my life, following after SisterOne, me as Wyoming Goomsman, and a lovely wedding in Iowa City. By any measure, I am a newbie when it comes to weddings.

You see, I was returning home from a fine day: I’d traveled from my home in Weimar up to Drei-Annen-Hohne. Once there, traveling via Erfurt and Nordhausen, I had a splendid day. I caught the Brockenbahn up to the top […] Today I added to my UNESCO World Heritage List with my visit to the Mammoth Caves National Park in Kentucky. The last UNESCO World Heritage site I visited was just a couple weeks ago when I was at home in Weimar; the site previous to that which would actually count, as a tourist, was the […] |
