Denver .... we made it!! 1000+ miles later!!!

We arrived in Denver about 12:30 noon’ish and was extremely tired. It took about 18 hrs to get here. I will NOT ever take the Dallas, Oklahoma and Kansas route to Colorado ever again!!
I do have to admit the Oklahoma gas prices are the cheapest I seen. Around Austin the average price of fuel is $3.93 a gallon. In Oklahoma City it was $3.78 a gallon (7-11-08)

As for rest, I only slept a total of 3 hours. Once I arrived in heaven,, oh I mean Denver my son and I took off to check out some local public parks.

First one was Washington Park. This park was amazing and people all over the place. Exercising, riding bikes, jogging, chillin and just lounging around. The weather was awesome! It was about 90, but it was not even hot!! Not like Austin @ 90 with humidity!!

I actually did not sweat nor did I use to AC in the car. People are very friendly here as I compared them to Austin folks. So far my 1st day here has been a blast.

Oh, for dinner we at ate DEL TACO it blows Taco Bell out of the water. Food was actually really good. Hot sauce,, well….. was very HOT!! J

Here are some pictures of the three parks we went to along w/ some sunset pictures!
