Denver

My BFF and I take a trip every year. We try and tie it to a race for me and find a great quilt shop for her. This year it took us to Denver. We stayed downtown and walked much of the city. We ate good food, saw a movie and shopped and shopped. We used uber, which I had never done before, and it was an adventure.

We always joke that in our old age, we will be each other's wife. When we saw this darling sign in a antique shop, we had to get a photo!

The Denver Botanic Garden was a peaceful and beautiful place right within the city. Surrounded by high rise buildings, you find this lush, green oasis. We had a light breakfast and walked the grounds.

When we caught a glimpse of these two, in their muumuus and socks and sandals we decided that would be us in 10 or 20 years!! YIKES!!

Pot is legal in CO which explains the smell that grabs you every so often as you are walking down the street! We had to go inside a "dispensary" and check it out. They were really nice to two uncool, old ladies! We even got a sticker from them! StarBUDS...get it??

We crammed a lot into four days (we always do!) One of my favorite memories is sitting in the hotel room laughing far into the night. The memories we create on these trips are always with me. They are a sweet reminder of how important friendship is and how lucky I am to have such a beautiful friend!
