Introduction
Joan and I agreed on an unusual trip. I would fly to Denver but instead of going to her home we would spend the weekend together in downtown Denver to enjoy the festivities and atmosphere of the 16th Street Mall. We had a fantastic long weekend. I loved being in a town where you don't need a car (though we had one). We either walked or took a free shuttle/bus where we needed to go. We will DEFINITELY have to do that again! There was no snow but it was magical nonetheless and, as Joan wisely noted, snow could have been a problem anyway. There was no risk of my flights being delayed or canceled and we got to enjoy roaming around with ease. Yes, it was very cold but that added to the atmosphere.
