denver lights

It was between getting plump golden raisons at King Soopers or watching that magical moment when the holiday lights of denver suddenly illuminate the sky. We choose raisons. I'll admit a moment of saddness as you can buy raisons at any moment but the holiday lights only switch on once a year and i had driven all the way from the Springs for that moment. But alas, golden raisons had their own mystery.

Later that night, i caught sight of the City Building in it's holiday grandeur. I planned to blink hard to recapture the illuminous moment, but when my eyes beheld the building, i gawked! How horrid! This is the most hideous display of holiday cheer i have ever seen- Behold! Denver!

Willows

I drove up to Denver a little early with hopes of finding a new korean sauna I had heard about at my local Korean Market. The directions made no sense. The street names and cross streets were on opposite quadrants of the map. I drove and drove and discovered nothing. But then i found myself on a magical road at dusk which led me to the happiest of trees... a willow lazing upon a bank.
