Denver Zoo fun things to do with kids.

Buffalo Bill’s Grave Lookout Mtn Denver CO -Fun things to do
Jan 31st 10
Buffalo Bill's Headstone
Looking for an afternoon of fun things to do with your kids in the Denver Metro area?
Head up to Buffalo Bill’s grave site. They have a movie, (TAKE CASH) memorabilia, gifts, souvenirs and of course junk but the views and learning experiance will have the kids asking questions all the way home. My 4 year old now wants to be a buffalo hunter, Army man that rides a horse.
The views alone are worth the trip. you can see to Woming on a clear day and Boulder looks so close you feel like you can touch it.
You can easily get there from I-70 or C-470 right in Golden. Just follow the signs up Lookout Mountain to the guest services building. It’s all well marked.

A Perfect Landing Restaurant
More fun things to do with kids around Parker Colorado. I took the photo with my iPhone and the windows are tinted so it didn’t come out as good as I had hoped.
Centennial Airport in Centennial Colorado. We are eating breakfast at the Perfect Landing Restaurant. This is a great place to take kids to eat breakfast and let the kids watch the planes takeoff and land. My son loves this place.

Colorado Ski Season is Here! Have fun with your KIDS!
Nov 30th 09
“These are two young skiers hanging out in Breckenridge and getting on their dance moves on. Garrett & Reno are famous for their dance extravaganzas after a hard day of skiing.”
“If you haven’t notice the Colorado Ski season for 2009 and 2010 is OPEN and ready for YOU!”
I’m a huge fan of having fun with my kids so I wanted to try and get more families out of the house and onto the slopes this year. A ski trip is a lot more than just skiing. Check out the video above and you will see that we have loads of fun before and after skiing as well. This was an impromptu dance session after a dinner out in Breckenridge at Rasta Pasta. They liked the music so they decided to get up and work off a few calories.
Skii doesn’t need to be expensive either. If you don’t have a season pass (shame on you) then go to King Scoopers or one of the local ski shops and get hugely discounted tickets or go with a friend that has a PASS and they will get you great rates on a lift ticket.
A few other quick easy ways to save money skiing in Coloado:
- Car pool! This is the best way to save.
- King Scoopers or Ski shop for discounted tickets.
- Check online for discounted tickets.
- Take your lunch-This is huge and can save $50 for a family of four.
- Save time & money by renting your skis ahead of time in Denver or wherever you live on the Front Range.
- Go skiing with a buddy that has a season pass and they can get you a discount ticket.
- Save time by leaving the slopes at around 2:00. Less traffic on the way home.
- Lenny’s Ski and Golf on Arapahoe Road rents skis for the year for kids and adults.
- Sports Authority Rents skis for the year for kids and daily rentals for adults.

Fly Fishing Colorado’s 11 Mile Canyon -Fun things to do
Oct 13th 09
11 Mile Canyon Fly Fishing
Last weekend it was a miserable day here on the Front Range in Denver, Colorado so we did what all fishermen and women do—we went fishing.
The temp on the front range didn’t get above 33 and the fog was so thick it made the trees icy. There was no reason to hang around Parker, Colorado, not even the fact that the Broncos were playing the Patriots, so we packed up and headed tot the river. As we climbed up US 24 out of Colorado Springs the sun started to peek a boo with us until finally we climbed out of the clouds and into 45-55 degrees pure Colorado Heaven.
Ice on trees just below Woodland Park.
Once on the river we very quickly realized that not only was the weather perfect but NOBODY not even the normal regulars were on the river. We have 11 Mile Canyon (which is actually 8.5 miles I learned) all to ourselves. Actually we did see one other guy but basically we had all of it to 4 eager fly fishing freaks.
The river was overflowing with fish and we were killing it most of the day. Jamie and I did get suckered into a deep pool where we could see that it was full of fish and we wasted about an hour there trying every fly in our box trying to get them to bite. I think it was a hit on our ego since we could not get them to bite anything we threw at them. We moved on and licked our wounds.
After noon the clouds rolled over 11 mile canyon and the hatch began. BWO was the fly of the hour. I LOVE fishing small dry flies on a clear river and watching the trout rise to eat them. It’s a high better than any drug could ever produce. Seeing the fish rise and suck in the fly and knowing that your about to get that long awaited TUG and fight.
There is a pool there Jamie calls the “community pool” that from the road you could see at least 50 trout rising to eat the hatch. What a rush! Three of us stood there for an hour catching fish after fish hooting and enjoying the moment. Freedom from work and the daily stress of surviving.
So, if your looking for fun things to do around Parker Colorado try a day up at 11 mile canyon. There are campsites and pull offs for easy parking .
To get there. Take Hwy 24 out of Colorado Springs to CR 96 at Lake George and follow the signs to a little slice of heaven. Enjoy a great day of fishing.

Ice on trees in Colorado
We were heading up to 11 Mile Canyon Sunday morning to do a little fly fishing and look what we ran into. From Monument Colorado to Woodland Park, Colorado the trees were covered in ice. Once we got to the top of the the hill in Woodland Park the Sun was out and it was 45 degrees. We had a great day of fishing since everyone else assumed it was crappy weather they all stayed home. We had the entire river to ourselves.
