Denver

A few weeks ago, Sandy and I went to the Peacemaker Conference in Denver. This was our first time at a Peacemaker conference, and it was our first time in Denver.

We stopped at Colorado Springs on the way up. It was a very beautiful city.

We happened to drive by Focus on the Family headquarters and spontaneously stopped in for a visit. I'm not a huge fan, but I appreciate the direction the ministry has been taking recently. I was impressed with the campus though, very nice.

In Denver, we spent some time at the Botanical Gardens. I have just one word for the place - FABULOUS!

We love gardens and have been to quite a few in several cities and states. This one was exceptional.

Beautiful landscapes, wildflowers, all types of gardens and ponds and other features. This place had excellent variety and quality.

If you're ever in Denver, you must stop here. It's well worth a visit. And it's quite large so plan to spend several hours.

We had a great time in Colorado.
