Great and so fun. I know it is a bit expensive, but the amount of rides are worth it, and not to mention they have many discounts avalible. Seniors get in for dollars!! I reccomend all the rides, and a good idea is to bring a picnic lunch, if u want to save money
Pros:Fun exciting,
Cons:The food is disgusting honestly

With 3 kids under 10, few would venture to an MLB game, but Coors Field makes it easy for us. There is plenty of parking in the main lot, private lots and on the street within just 5 blocks in any direction. As another reviewer pointed out, Denver's light rail means not having to park dowtown at all if you'd rather not. The streets outside the stadium are pedestrian-only during games, so there's plenty of walking space. Same goes for the concourse inside - nice and wide for less congestion with an enormous souvenir store on the first base side of the main level. Going in they only check you for weapons and glass bottles; Coors is one of the few venues where you can bring in your own food and drink. (The concessions are the high ballpark prices you 'd expect.) There's not a bad seat in the place, and there are plenty of escalators and elevators if your seats are higher up. If you do find yourself on the third level, your view of the city or mountains is phenomenal, and the Colorado sunset is second to none. When you go, check out the single row of purple seats exactly one mile above sea level. For the kids there is a playground out past left field and there are both batting and pitching cages in center. There are plenty of places to explore in case of rain or kids who need to get up and move around. (Rockies games are rarely rained out.) Coors Field is the best - Go Rockies!
Pros: Architecture, Accessibility, Bring your own food inside, Kid friendly, Scenery
Cons: Premium seating is pricey. Denver's high elevation means afternoon sunburn.

I have purchased two puppies from North Washington Street Kennel in the past year and a half. I could not have been happier with the service I received, and with the puppies that I purchased. Both of my puppies are very healthy and are still cared for by the Veterinary staff employed by the kennel. When you purchase a puppy from this kennel you are given a guarantee that your puppy is in good health. If it is found to not be healthy in any way, they will treat your puppy at no charge to you! When you purchase a puppy you are given a free exam with their vet, but you are not required to use it. You are welcome to take the puppy to any vet you would like to have its health evaluated, the good thing about using the vet at the kennel is that it is much much cheaper! It is obvious the kennel cares about the puppies or they would not got to such lengths to keep them healthy! I will continue to purchase my puppies here in the future!

We've been to three "boutique photographers" here in Denver and six in LA, but none deserve the recognition I'm about to give! You know the drill. At first my wife was skeptical (as usual) and the kids were unraveling in a sugar fed frenzy, bopping all over the place, distracting me and leading toward a somewhat embarrassing rescheduling. Then a male assistant (which was a nice surprise) was summoned and surprisingly he both calmed and occupied my children when others would have failed. He got them to smile even laugh. I was impressed. Together they directed the shoot, were organized, communicated smoothly, and to us it seemed they really liked each other AND what they were doing for us. HUGE. Best of all, there was none of the "I don't need your business" attitude like most of the other successful high end photographer/artists we've hired. The two of them liked what they were doing and it was contagious. Not a hint of boredom. I could feel a good energy in the space and something about the lighting and even the smell of the place was remarkable. It felt good to be there. The wait to see the work was not unusual and we actually looked forward to going back. We were surprised, but then not surprised, that Melanie did the sales presentation. She owns her work and takes pride in all of it. She did a first rate presentation. The pieces we purchased for our living room and foyer are stunning. Flawless. Lastly, my wife jokes about calling her assistant when our children are out of control, and I agree. I highly recommend Melanie, her studio, and I applaud her for finding a male assistant that gets it!
Pros: The vibe. The atmosphere. The couple who run the place. Everything about it.

We looked for about 3 months for the perfect child care facility. We choose A Child's Touch because we were so impressed with the tour. This place is huge. There is a science center, a nature center, a computer center, huge play areas with age appropriate equipment. There is even a ball pit. Most of the employees have been there for over 5 years. In most centers there is a high turn over of staff. Not here. They keep their employees happy, which benefits everyone.
The prices are a bit higher than some, but they have a learning program. They do not just let the kids watch tv all day. You get what you pay for, and for us our kids get nothing but the best. If you are looking for the best, look no further.

I had Michael play both bagpipes and guitar for my daughter's wedding and it was the perfect touch. His bag piping is dramatic nd my-oh-my does the bride make an entrance when he proceeds her down the aisle.
As a guitarist, Michael is second to none and he's great to have during the cocktail hour while guests are meeting and mingling. In addition to being one of his clients, I also work with Michael professionally at many weddings (he plays and I marry folks!) and I am always impressed by his repertoire, professionalism and calm demeanor. If you are going to "do" bagpipes for any occasion, there is nobody else but Michael whom I'd recommend!

Recently I was trying to get some multi-page double-sided programs printed from a pdf document that I'd burned onto a disc. A pretty basic job, right? So I figured I could get it done cheaply at Office Max, Office Depot, or one of those types of places. WRONG!! I spent basically an entire day running from one store to another and dealing with dysfunctional equipment, delays, mistakes, staff problems and just plain old incompetence. Just when I was about ready to rip my hair out in frustration, my salvation arrived. I walked into Anaconda Printing's downtown location and immediately I felt calmer and more hopeful. The intelligent staff members understood exactly what I wanted, and they had exactly the color and weight of paper that I wanted it printed on. The job was done accurately, on time, and for a very reasonable price. Very highly recommended. Thank you Anaconda!

My son started here when I first went back to work. It was such a comfort to have him near me downtown. During those first months, I was able to visit on my lunch hour. The caretakers are loving and warm. My son received excellent care here. We even took baby sign language classes with the teachers.

Mike's Camera has it all for photo buffs. They stock film cameras and digital cameras alike. Unlike the staff at big box electronics stores, the people who work at Mike's are experts and know a lot about photography and all the equipment that you need for this hobby (or profession, depending on who you are). Mike's Camera even offer free classes if you buy a camera from them, so that you can learn about exposure, apertures, and all the settings that you can do to get special effects with your camera -- or just good snapshots of your family. Their photo finishing service is friendly and efficient, and you will see a real difference in your prints. It's interesting to just look around Mike's, and see what is new in the photography arena.
