Only one neighborhood in Denver can truly be known as the nerve center of the Mile High City, and it’s been that way for over 150 years. The Lower Downtown Historic District (aka LoDo) of Denver was the first land plotted to become the great city of Denver way back in the gold rush times […]

The movie I feel also stayed true to its predecessor, the great musical written by sir Andrew […]

I’ll never forget going to see “The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring”. It was approaching New Year’s Eve in 2001 and change was in the air, along with rain. What was once a rare and sunny winter Florida day; it suddenly caromed into this dreary, windy, rainy day at Disney in […]
