Colorado Field Trip

With little rest, I boarded a plane to Denver for some fieldwork.

We hit the road after landing and headed out to Grand Junction.  We stopped at a Qdoba for lunch (one of Julie's favorite places) where I tried a couple of tacos and some queso and chips.

The scenery was beautiful.

It was very late afternoon when we arrived and we went out for a few interviews which were successful.  On the way back to the hotel, we had dinner at Bin Foodbar 707 and it was a very hip place.  We ordered a salad to share and I ordered the fancy burger while Julie had a steak.  We obviously were not hip enough to fit in there.

The next day was not as successful but we did find a Hawaiian place for lunch.

I ordered a Kalua pork sandwich which came with egg drop soup and I had to sample the macaroni salad.  Julie decided to stay asian with the pho and spring rolls.

Before we left, I stopped to pick up a famous peach at a tent in a parking lot.

We headed back to Denver and stopped by Georgetown for a pit stop.  Very interesting little place with a cool shop.

After checking into the hotel, we walked to DiCiccio's for dinner.  Food was good, service was a bit slow, and they had a huge projection tv where they placed Andrea Bocelli in concert.

The decor of the restaurant we modeled after a theater with booths, a mezzanine level and a balcony level.

The next morning had a beautiful sunrise as we headed to the airport very early for flights home.
