Fathers Day Birds

Happy Fathers Day Jim and Roger!

Erica doesn't particularly like birds, but these are an exception.  We received three Red Birds in a Tree in our Garden in a Box  and this one just started blooming.  Pretty cute little guys, just like our dads.

New 'do

New hairdo.  It took me a couple days to get used to it.  It's about 2" all over on top.  Totally wash and wear.  My hair girl says the more product I use the better and to only wash my hair every third day.  We'll see how that all works out.

We Have Fruit!

We had a nice surprise this week when we spied these little beauties.  They are the only fruit on the tree.

The Morning in Pictures

We were out of the house by 7:45 headed to the Denver Performing Arts Center (DPAC) on our bikes to the Heart Walk   

This is "The Dancers" at the DPAC.  We had never been this close to them before.  They stand 50 feet tall.

On to the Heart Walk - a group from Erica's office put together a team.  It was a nice 3 mile stroll through downtown.  

On the way home, we stopped at the Higland Farmer's Market.  They had lots of good stuff, but with no cash or a good means to carry anything back, we moseyed on home empty handed.  We will be back.

So Fresh and So Green!

We are still getting rain and our yard hasn't looked better!  

A couple of the grasses along the back fence didn't make it this year.  The Moonshine Yarrow on the other hand, are huge!  A little too big, maybe.  Will be adding a few additional plants in some fun colors (pink and red), but not sure exactly what just yet.

Museums

On Memorial Day we spent the morning at the Museum of Modern Art and the afternoon at the 9/11 museum.  

These are pictures from the 9/11 museum.  Half of the museum honored those that lost their lives.  The other half was a timeline of the days events, the aftermath, history of Al Qaeda and details on the hijackers entrance into the U.S. and much more.  It was an overwhelming experience.


"No day shall erase you from the memory of time"
Unidentified and unclaimed remains from the attack are located in a repository behind this wall.

Across the Brooklyn Bridge

It was a crowded walk across the bridge.  Amazing views.  

We had a leisurely stop in Brooklyn, grabbed some pizza for lunch, and took the subway back to Times Square.



The National Debt Clock


The debt clock was very near our hotel and one of the last things we saw some nights.  Complete with your Families Share of the debt calculation.  

Grand Central Terminal

There were constellations painted on the ceiling.
