Not Quite a Vacation

It's not quite a vacation for us this week, but it's certainly a change of pace. We've been sick but are feeling better today. Except for the cough. Everyone says that, I'm pretty good except for the cough. The poor cat is still a mess with her glucose readings from her diabetes. We keep poking her ear and giving her injections. She's not happy and we're not happy. Back to the vet this morning. I emailed the latest numbers to him and he wrote back, "There's something wrong with this picture." I agree.

We were supposed to spend the day in Denver on Monday but Steve had to make up some time at work first. I picked him up around noon and we headed to the Buckhorn Exchange for lunch. Teddy Roosevelt ate there in 1905. The food was very good but the number of stuffed animals and birds was somewhat disturbing. The historic photos and artifacts were well worth seeing though.

From there, we went to the Denver Botanic Gardens. They have a Chihuly exhibit that is a lot of fun. The median age of visitors at the gardens was around 74.

By the time we saw everything, we were tired but still went to my favorite Army-Navy store in Englewood where I got a good price on a new duffle bag. We'll have to see the new history museum some other time when our energy levels are back to normal.
