… with my pARTy Flair …


My 1st & final pARTy Beverages of the day occured at Pat’s …








… this place will be a lot different when I make my return …


Denver is a haven for the food trucks/trailers as you will see as we walk the route ….


I walked the entire parade route twice …


… I walked the right side, crossed over ….


… and hit the other side of the street ….


… hitting a few pARTy Beverage Dispensing Depots along the way (of course) …


Look … it’s “Run-A-Way Bill”!


… coming up to 1st pARTy Bar along parade route …


… interestingly, my local neighborhood favorite bar in Virginia Beach is also the Icehouse (and an old icehouse too) …


… my #1 beer choice is Icehouse!


Recognize the guy in the mirror?


pARTy Pals … with a pARTy Beverage & a smile!






“Icehouse” was the 1st bar on the parade route as the floats depart the Denver Rockies stadium assembly area.




No bead thowing, but some bead “handing” … no Mardi Gras of beads for sure!




Sooooo many places to sit or stand along the parade route ...




Denver is not full of friendly folks, but they are out there!






Parade route is lined with apartments & condos …


My 1st tailgaters at the super tailgaters parking lot …
