We've got your itinerary already planned out for you
My family moved from the Detroit area to Littleton when I was nine, and I became an extension of Colorado’s tourism office. I sent handwritten cards to friends and family back in Michigan inviting them to come visit Colorado.
I drummed up plenty of interest, and, over the decades, as visitors came to town, my family developed a few go-to’s on our itinerary to dazzle our guests. Some traditions are no more. Who remembers the Baby Do’s mine-themed restaurant overlooking Interstate 25 and downtown? Some more of my tried-and-true staples include hitting up Wash Park for a walk and picnic, a ride on the Georgetown Loop Railroad and a visit to Red Rocks Amphitheater, even if it’s just to hike around. My 85-year-old grandma huffed it up the stairs and around the park during her last visit and a couple of summers ago my cousin traveled to Colorado to propose to his now wife mid-concert in the amphitheater.
Union Station’s great hall seen from the Cooper Lounge at Union Station in Denver on Wednesday, Jan. 26, 2022.So, your friends are arriving from the airport on the RTD A Line? Greet them at the Beaux Arts-style renovated train station and ask them if they’re thirsty or hungry. If so, slip away to the glam mezzanine-level Cooper Lounge for a pick-me-up like an espresso martini made with local Family Jones vodka or grab a board loaded with meats and cheeses at Mercantile Dining & Provisions.
