Today I had an utterly urban morning with Wendy W. We took B-cycle bikes from 13th/Pearl in Capitol Hill to Rootdown in the Highlands for brunch. This is my Hazel Dell mushroom omelet with Wendy in the background. We reserved a table and had a great one right at the edge of the patio – not 100% in the sun but lots of light and a breeze from the outside.
Rootdown has a good atmosphere and wonderfully organic food offerings but they don’t offer non-fat milk, only whole and soy milk. Is that some anti-processed food movement I haven’t heard of? Also, as I’ve mentioned in the past, I have allergies. They have cloth napkins, which is great. I use cloth napkins at home. I usually carry a handkerchief but forgot one. After I placed my order, I held up my cloth napkin, merely to identify it as cloth, and asked if I could get a paper napkin. The server tried to take my napkin but then I clarified that I just had to blow my nose and didn’t want to replace my cloth napkin. I guess I can kind of see the confusion. See the kind of problems I have…
Next we walked to REI to get new sunglasses for Wendy. We found new ones that look great! Seriously.
We rented another B-cycle and made our way back to Capitol Hill. Our route took us across the Millennium Bridge, which is great because it has a stair ramp for bikes. This means you don’t have to use the elevator or carry your bike up the stairs. You can get a short but awesome work out by pushing your bike up the stairs! This is Wendy making it happen:
Someone affixed knitted flowers to the fence around the Denver Union Station construction site. This is just one panel but there were many more.
It was fun way to spend a Sunday morning. I recommend y’all get a friend on a B-cycle and get out to brunch soon!
Sounds like a great way to spend a Sunday morning!
