Friday Fish Fry

This morning we met Erin to see a "mock up" (at least I think that is the correct term) of the wedding table, chairs, place settings and flowers.    Its gonna be lovely!

This evening we picked Jesse up at DIA (the airport) and then met Erin (after her work day) in downtown Denver for a casual dinner at The Kitchen Next Door, a close relative to the original Kitchen in Boulder and Denver.    It is in the recently renovated and energized Union Station, the atmosphere is lively and the food is just wonderful.   Since it was Friday night I had a fish fry (fish and chips here) and Dave had a lobster roll, that's fish isn't it?

  On our way to the airport we ran through some tremendous storms, filled with hail.    The building and quickly changing clouds were just fantastic to watch while we waited in the cell phone lot.    I didn't take any pictures.  

Here are a few I took on Monday afternoon at Riverbend in Lyons.  This is where The Wedding will take place in September.   They are just beginning to set up for the season's weddings and were very behind due to the recent heavy rains and flooding.   Betsy and Mike (the owner's) graciously allowed us to wander the grounds and get a feel for the place.     I think the blue sky that afternoon was a good omen, don't you?
