This weekend was the much anticipated Walk for Alternatives in downtown Denver. This walk was for the Alternatives Pregnancy Center, where Sarah volunteers her time. The 1.5 mile walk was probably just long enough to burn of the free donuts we inhaled beforehand. As you can see, some of our friends joined us.
After the walk, several of us went to the People's Fair in Denver. It is ironic that the walk, sponsored by a non-profit organization had free food and drinks, while the "People's Fair" cost an arm and a leg for anything (except for the free water given out by another non-profit, the Denver Church). So why exactly is this a "People's Fair"?
I guess it is a People's fair because it gives ordinary folk an excuse to get snockered early in the day, dance, and make idiots of themselves. I expect more of this at the democratic convention here in Denver, minus the alcohol...:
Following the cut "So You Think You Can Dance?" auditions we went to the Denver Art museum to see "Outward expressions of inward emotions", or something like that. My favorite parts were the long hand rails that I could slide down...and leaving. Perhaps I would better understand and appreciate modern "art" if I had started drinking at sunrise. I do highly recommend seeing the outside of the building:

Yeah...so as far as the wise-ass cracks at the democrats, my only rebuttle is--Nice job on the last elections republicans! Nathan can always say he got his picture taken with the worst president ever--or at least the most made fun of pres.
The video of the dancing was by far my favorite. I didn't want it to stop. Maybe I'll go watch it again. And again...and again. I mean, are you serious?!
And...no one understands modern art. You either like something or you don't. Modern or not. At least that's what I tell my art students. Peace out. -Leah
