Wheee! Downtown Denver! What a great town. If you get a chance, you absolutely MUST go to The Tattered Cover in the Cherry Hill shopping district. It's the bestest bookstore ever. And you MUST go to WaxTrax ( the best music store(s) ever!) - it's somewhere around 14th St. IIRC. Oh and the Anglicans have a *beautiful* cathedral in downtown.

Oh and REI on Platte St. (gotta get gear for the mountains!) There used to be a North Face outlet store on Colorado Blvd, but I don't know if it's still there.

Oh and there's a wonderful little living history in Littleton.

Oh sigh. I might have to come visit y'all. I'm pining for mountains!

I've been to the Tattered Cover before - it was nice!

I plan to just rent gear through school until I know which mountain activities I like ;-) You're welcome to visit us any time, but be warned, the couch is not that comfortable.

Mountain Moot? That'd be cool...

Denver is a city I really know almost nothing about. Rather sad, but I'd love to explore! Unless the weather magically clears up, of course.

Went to the mall and (had some gooood coffee and) checked some more stuff on phones. I think I'm pretty much sold on Verizon, though it's a little pricier than some. Lots more coverage than most, especially if we're gonna be out hiking much. I know you hike to get away from it all, but I'd feel better knowing I COULD contact help if something went wrong. Also I think my brother has Verizon, so I could bug him for free. ;-)

I do need to find out how they define evening hours, though. That could be a catch. Doesn't do me much good to have unlimited evenings if evenings start at nine local - eleven at home. Still have weekends, of course.

We're going out again for a bit, but should be back waiting when you get home, Jen!
