whatchudoin...

this weekend? i know some people (like 500,000) are going to the TasteofColorado at the Civic Center Plaza. it's a time honored Labor Day weekend tradition. more than 50 food booths, numerous crafts, kiddie rides, music stages, and never ending throngs of people.

i used to like going...but i'm getting more and more intolerant of crowds as i get older. of course, this coming from a person who loves to go to huge metropolitan areas like Mexico City, Lima, Madrid, Chicago, NYC...and one of these days: Sao Paulo, Mumbai, Shanghai, and Tokyo/Yokohama.

instead, we may go to Lakeside Amusement Park for a train ride and some barf-o-rama rides. well, for lois ;) after i had labyrinthitis in 1996, i can't do the roller coasters, tilt-a-whirls, etc. boo. we could always go to Six Flags and drop some serious money, but we're savin' pennies for our trip. besides, they don't have a train ride or 10 cent tix. it's all about nostalgia, ain't it?
