South Valley at Sunset
I thought I was going to disappointed in sunsets having moved to CO from CA, but I was wrong! Wash Park is my fav park around Denver, it's always bustling with joggers, bikers, stroller moms, volleyball...There's always something for everyone! #Adventure #NoFilterBelieveItOrNot :)
It's always interesting to walk around universities and see the different types of architecture. This is the University of Denver founded in 1864 and the oldest private university in the Rocky Mountain region
