Denver Blizzard part II



Those of us who had to drudge out into the elements found a pleasant camaraderie with the people we encountered. You’d expect everyone would be in a foul mood but instead I found just the opposite. Pedestrians, drivers, even people in their doorways were all in pretty good spirits, just making the best of the situation. (Click on photos to enlarge images.)

Denver is a beautiful city, perhaps no more so when it is frosted.




Capitol Hill, our favorite neighborhood. You listening Pill Hill? Beacon Hill?




Broadway was empty. Imagine East Wash or Comm Ave or Wisconsin Avenue devoid of activity.




The Public Library, the Colorado Historical Society (that Buffalo is taller than either you or I), and the new wing of the Denver Art Museum.

The Capitol, outside the Denver Post, and an Inner City Sasquatch.


The view from work. The Library and Art Museum overlooking Civic Center, Civic Center sans drug dealers, and the the State House.




The sun peaked out just before setting. And I biffed pretty major on my walk home.

The Denver Blizzard


Moore School on Capitol Hill - Wednesday morning

Moore School - Thursday morning

Even the snowman was burdened by snow

Capitol Hill facing East to Cheesman Park

The King Soopers parking lot is normally packed by this time of day


It snowed and snowed and snowed and snowed
And when it stops nobody knowed.
