…food and travel stories by Karren Doll Tolliver
I visited the Denver Botanic Gardens next to Cheesman Park in Colorado on a lovely spring day. They were having their spring plant sale and I got a hint of all the wonderful western, international and water gardens there.
Cheese Importers in Longmont, Colorado, was a surprisingly wonderful European experience, smack in the middle of the northern Front Range! In addition to a huge selection of local and imported cheeses, you can have lunch at the bistro or a drink at the bar. Worth every effort to get there from Denver!
Longmont, CO, Museum hosted a lowrider car and culture exhibit and I got to see it! Though small, they managed to present some prime car specimens which displayed the artwork and culture of the Mexican lowrider culture to advantage. Check out my photos!
For Cinco de Mayo, join me on a spontaneous trip to Denver's Casa Bonita, a roadside attraction, restaurant and favorite family place in the Lakewood suburb. See thrilling cliff divers and sopaipillas, too. Fifty-two thousand square feet of fun!
An exploration of Denver's commuter train line, some airport photographs, two prairie dogs, a few city shots and a mile-high visit to the Colorado state Capitol building for a cheesy tourist selfie.
