Denver

Russ and I went to Denver for a conference for work. We flew out on Wednesday getting there early enough to do some walking around. Thursday we were in class all day.



Friday we skipped out on the morning session and took a bus to Golden. In Golden we went on a tour of the Coors Brewing Factory. We had to hurry so we could get back in time for the afternoon workshops. The last workshop was for "Under 40's" since most of our profession is 60+ year old men. It was interesting to meet VERY successful Business Brokers who are under 40. Then we were off to a Happy Hour with them followed by the Colorado Rockies game.


Saturday we had workshops all day. The lunch was very interesting, the speaker was Bob Gray who is in the Guiness Book of World Records for memory and being able to write forward, backward, backwards upside down, and upside down as a mirror with his left hand, right hand, and both of his feet! He was very entertaining! Saturday night we went to a nice dinner and had some really good steaks. After dinner we went back to the bar at our hotel, it was on the 27th floor and had amazing views of the city and moutains.







Sunday before we had to catch our shuttle we walked to the Capital and stood on the step that is exactly "1 mile above sea level."




It was a good trip, I would have loved to stay longer and been able to see Vail, oh well maybe next time!
