Denver, Colorado
After a grueling 13.5 hour drive through Iowa and Nebraska's Corn and Wheat Field I made it to the Mile High City and was presented with 28 degree F weather. Burrrr.
I basically just checked into the Innkeeper of the Rockies Hostel and went downtown to find some bars/clubs/pubs...it is Halloween. Unfortunately, seeing that I am driving cross country with little cash, downtown's bars were too expensive. So I made it up to Colfax Ave. and checked out a few dive bars with $1 pints (which were free because the chick bartender liked me) and talked to the locals. The decribed Denver as a city of chaos, which I couldn't fathom. Then two minutes later, right before my eyes, I witnessed a drunk guy get smashed in the mouth with a beer bottle and the door or his 1970s Landrover broken off by another dude. The he proceeded to drive away hammered. I turned to the guy speaking of chaos and just nodded my head.
