I have been meaning to post for so long, and working (in occasional feverish, well-intentioned yet doomed bursts) on the next entry, that I was very surprised recently to look at my blog and realize that the last time I posted was almost 6 months ago.
The short version of the story is that I moved to Denver. The medium version of the story is that I decided to try out Denver for the summer, and liked it so well that I am still here, and have moved at least enough of my warm clothes here to make it through the winter. I guess the long version is something we'll have to hash out in person. Want to meet for drinks? I know the perfect place.
My previous attempts to sum up my Denver experience so far have been way too wordy. I think what I'll try to do instead is mention a few things I'm enjoying so far and illustrate it with some of the pictures I've been taking.
I love being near the mountains again.
The weather is spectacular...
...and the seasonal changes are very exciting.

Public transportation is always nice... so is public art.
The arts are indeed alive and well here.

Returning from a recent trip to California, the pilot announced the weather over the intercom: "It's 75 and sunny in Denver. Welcome to Paradise!" I laughed to myself. He doesn't realize we've just escaped Paradise! Or maybe the joke's on me...
