Mel and I have made it to Denver!
We left St Louis on Monday morning at 5:00 am and drove drove drove all day across Missouri, Kansas, and East Colorado. We hit Colorado in late afternoon and every hill we crest we expect to see the mountains bam! there in front of us. They never come. In fact, we make it all the way into Denver proper before we even outlines of the mountains. The westerly winds have pushed California wildfires ash etc across half the country and over the Rocky Mountains and Denver is coated in the haze. It's almost like a cross between LA smog and Oregon fog. That with the moon glowing orange last night makes the whole thing slightly discombobulating.
But last night I hung out with my friend Biff. We sat on his front porch eating burgers and shooting BB guns at tin cans lined up on a fence. I'd never shot one of those before I actually had a pretty good shot. We totally shredded a Coke can, it was sliced into three different pieces. Pretty good if I do say so myself.
Denver also seems to be the place where I come across Jonas Brothers. Mel and I were in Walgreens today flipping through the magazine racks and there tucked behind a USWeekly magazine someone had shoved a Rolling Stone's Everything Jonas Brothers special edition including five posters. So naturally we had to buy it. Currently we have the five posters sprawled across Hannah's living room floor (Mel has put first dibs on the Nick Jonas one) and Mel is immersed in the articles and I am telling you all about it. We have both decided we would like to meet them because they seem like funny guys.
