On Sunday, we headed to LoDo for the first time...and certainly not to be the last!
Our first stop, which a friend had mentioned, as did a website of Things To See in LoDo:
As soon as I stepped across the threshold, I felt at home! It was like slipping into comfy slippers to sit in your favorite chair while sipping coffee and reading a book or flipping thru magazines. Everything is worn and lived in and welcoming ~ exactly what I want a bookstore to be!!
The coffee is tasty & the refills only 75¢! There is plenty of seating and free wifi. There are 2 floors of books, plus racks of magazines. The floors are wood. The furniture is mismatched and old. The building, which I need to research, is brick and must have been something industrial in its previous life. They have a small event place. Neil Gaiman has been there!!!!!
While walking around to soak it all in, I told Chris I wanted to move in! No one would notice, right?! I would LOVE to work there! (They are currently hiring...but the drive for a part-time gig is too long.) I can't wait to go back!!
We might make Sunday trips to Denver...specifically Tattered Cover (especially during the cold months) part of our regular routine. (After paying $5 to park in a lot, we discovered that the parking meters are free on Sundays...however, it was a Broncos home game, so we would have had to park quite a ways away to get street parking that day or needed to have arrived a little earlier. But, now we know!)
