We'll be running a 5k on Saturday morning and all are welcome to participate. It is the Race to the Shrine, which goes through the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. I believe that is the world's highest altitude zoo and it will provide a challenging course. The race info can be found at cmzoo.org. We are planning to have fun with it. Let me know if you plan on running so we can meet up and coordinate. The 5k starts at 8:15am. See you there!

Things to do in Denver when you're dead

I'm not a very good tour guide, but I'll do my best. The following things will actually be just fine if you aren't dead, too.

1. Go to Colorado Springs - That's where the wedding is actually happening. The title is a misnomer. I can't vouch for the film of the same name either. It might be terrible.
2. Garden of the Gods - Now we're talkin'. This should be on every person's list. You must find time to go there, even if it is just to drive around the loop. It is a great place to hike, a great place for a run, a great place to take pictures and it's beautiful.
3. Pikes Peak - You can see it from anywhere but the best view is from the top. You can drive Pikes Peak Highway, ride the cog railway or even hike (snow shoes, insanity required). If you can't make it to the top the lower parts at least offer stunning views of America's Mountain.
4. Manitou Springs - This quirky, touristy town nestled up against Pikes Peak is full of shopping and other fun things. You can drive through on your way to the Manitou Springs Cliff Dwellings - a family-oriented center devoted to the local native american history.
5. The US Olympic Training center - Check their website for tour times. You might run into a future gold medalist.
6. US Air Force Academy - A famous cathedral and views up and down the front range
7. Woodland Park - Highway 24 west is the fastest way to get straight to the mountains - the ROCKY MOUNTAINS. You'll head first to Woodland park, which has awesome views of Pikes Peak. You can get some awesome biscuits and gravy at the Donut Mill. This is the first stop for anyone headed to the ski towns like Aspen or Vail.
8. My home - that's right, don't forget about the backyard barbecue on Saturday night. Try to send me a message to let me know if you are coming.

Send me a message if you want more info, especially if you plan to drive up Pikes Peak or go to the mountains. I can make some good suggestions.

This could be you!

Picture sharing

Everyone is going to want to take pictures and share them. I am going to make an album to collect all of those images. That album can be found here. If you are looking for an easy way to upload your photos (or videos) you can just email them to curtis.larimer.wedding@picasaweb.com. The subject line of the email will end up as the photo caption. If you are looking to upload a lot of pictures at once and you have a google account I will add you as a collaborator so you can go to Picasaweb and upload directly. Francisca and I will look forward to seeing all of the photos that you submit!

RSVPs

It's spring and with the conclusion of my semester our thoughts have finally turned completely towards the wedding. The anticipation has been growing for months. And finally the time has arrived ... for Kate and William. As for Fran and I, we still have to wait a few weeks. I was watching the royal wedding and dutifully taking notes. It looks like I may have forgotten about the police escort from the ceremony to the reception. Oh well, maybe that's just a British thing. Watching the royal wedding this morning reminded me that I haven't received the RSVP from the Beckhams yet. They have until May 1st, just like the rest of you.
