making the most of it

After breakfast we decided to go over to Golden, CO.
I know what you are thinking...
What is in Golden?
The Coors Brewery!
You get to park for free, take a free tour
and get 3 free beers of your choice after the tour.
Next on the list was Buffalo Bills museum and grave
On our way back down we had the pleasure of seeing not one but two deer at different times.
After all of the excitement we were hungry. We decided to go find Heritage Square. This is an area that has some old fashioned theme park rides such as the tilt-o-whirl. They also have lots of little shops, mini golf, alpine slide and some restaurants. We had some burgers and fries and looked around for a bit.
Before we knew it the time had come to head over to Red Rocks.
Disclaimer: Photos do not do this place justice.
We saw two bands, one really bad comedian, a cartoon and King Kong all for one low price.
We left an hour and 30 min. into King Kong because we were tired. And because it took that long for King Kong to show up! We went mostly for the experience. And it was incredible. The views were great and the sunset was gorgeous.
