When Denver Won Us Over — Photos from 2010

Read this post on TravelFeed.io for the best experience



Mike and I first visited Denver in the early 2000s, and we were not impressed — it seemed to be one of those typical Midwestern cities which empty out right at 5pm, as everyone hops in their cars and returns to their homes in the suburbs. But something changed over the next decade, because when we returned for a short visit in 2010, we were surprised by how much we enjoyed the city. Was it Denver that changed, or was it us?

The big difference for us seemed to be that the downtown felt revitalized. There was a lot of commotion on the streets in the evening, with plenty of bars and restaurants, and people walking around enjoying them. There was a rental system for city bikes, allowing residents to get around without cars. The city just felt healthy and alive — the kind of place where there’s always something happening. During our visit, there was a food truck festival being held, and we had a blast. Over the course of just a single evening, we found that our opinions of Denver had totally changed.

Apart from the bustling nightlife, we found other aspects of the city to appreciate. First, of course, is the dominating presence of the Rocky Mountains, right on the city’s doorstep. Not only do they provide a gorgeous backdrop for the city, but offer up a plethora of nature activities to Denver’s residents, like hiking, skiing, and mountain biking. We also discovered the FasTracks Light Rail, which went into operation in 2006. We’re huge fans of public transportation and were surprised to learn that although the Light Rail is new, Denver has had a tramway since 1886 — just a few years after its founding.

Looking back on these pictures, which over a decade old, makes us remember how much fun we had during our short trip to Denver. From what we hear, the city has only improved — and now that Colorado has legalized a certain plant, there’s even more to enjoy. The only downside to Denver’s burgeoning popularity, is that it’s becoming a lot more expensive place in which to live… but that shouldn’t prevent us from visiting!

The people doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved deeply with her group and @fyrstikken . Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. I cant prove she is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing it. I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have tried to kill me and are still trying to kill me. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome.

They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years.

What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth? https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism
