Flew into Denver International airport. The airport is still out in the middle of no where. Looking out both sides of the airplane on landing there is NOTHING but fields. I was surprised that there is no development as this airport has been open for a long time.
The client site is about 1/2 hour north west from airport toward Boulder. The views of the Rocky Mountains are just incredibly beautiful. There is still snow on most of the mountains and the air was very clear yesterday. And as the sun sets, the mountains really are what the song says - "for purple mountain majesties."
My hotel on the other hand is not so nice....but beggars can't be choosers. There were no hotel rooms anywhere in the area. I called our travel agency yesterday morning in hopes that something had opened up. They found a Radisson in Longhorn which is another 30 minutes away. Certainly not up to the Hilton Anatole standards, this Radisson hasn't been renovated since it opened in 1980 -- my guess.
One possible silver lining...there is an Old Chicago right next door to the hotel.
