If you are a fan of Coors beer, then you probably don't want to read this - Crazy Mike fullfilled his wish and swam buck-naked in a Colorado stream. This event withstanding, my favorite memory of this trip is still riding up into the Rockies in the back of Jon's truck. If I couldn't do it on a motorcycle, I think the back of a pickup truck was the best way to view the landscape.

Coors Field was a terrific place to watch a game, and you didn't even have to be at your seat to view the action. We actually went into a pub to cool down for a few innings (why is it 95° in every city we visit?) and we ran into a fellow Boston crew taking in the game - Small World.

Trip Highlights:

• Watching the interesting mix of people playing checkers & chess 24 hours a day near our hotel on the 16th Street Mall
