Ice Hockey, the taste of Greenwood Village and dinner in Castle Rock


My second attendance at a ice hockey game and what an exciting game to watch at the Pepsi Center in Denver

Lesleigh and me in the crowd and just off the ice which is prime seating, $100 a ticket which we got from a friend for free.

Saturday night in the restaurant in Castle Rock, a great evening out.

This has been a week of the socialites. We attended toastmasters on Wednesday morning, played golf at Raccoon Creek on Wednesday afternoon and shot a 80 with not one birdie. Wednesday night we got tickets to watch the hockey and that was a fantastic treat. The game is so fast and intense and definitely far better to watch live than any television footage.

On Thursday we went off to an event called the Taste of Greenwood Village and it was a great event. They had all the local restaurants in the area present offering samples of the food they serve in their respective restaurants. People filled the hall walking from stall to stall sampling cuisine and tasting wine from a variety of wine makers who were present.

Then on Saturday we attended a speech contest in the Denver Tech Center followed by a birthday dinner in Castle Rock about a 30 min drive South of Denver for one of Melissa's friends. The food was good and we all had a great evening out.

Today Lesleigh and I seem to have picked up a throat virus of some type and are taking it easy at home as we have a really busy week ahead. Oh and before I forget it started snowing in the mountains last night so ski season looks like it will be a lot of fun this year, only 35 days to go!
