One of Denver's remarkable landmarks is the
BIG BLUE BEAR.
Tony, Trinity, and Aubrey had the opportunity to sit on the BIG BLUE BEAR'S foot when they went to the Sports Show with Derek, Devin, and Dan last weekend. 
Diane, Dan, Belle, and Devin had Big Blue looking down on them when they went to the RV Show.The Big Guy hangs out in front of the Colorado Convention Center. This piece is called "I See What You Mean"...It is a steel sculpture encased in a fiberglass and cement composite by artist Lawrence Argent. One of my favorite sites in downtown Denver.
We also discovered that Denver now has its very own "Jumbotron"....almost like Times Square in NYC----almost:)
The Big Blue Bear sure beats out the statue out at Denver International Airport (DIA) named "Blue Mustang"....some call it the "Blue Demon Horse of Death" after the mustang's artist Luis Jimenez was killed when a section of the 9,000 lb. fberglass statue fell on him during construction. 
****************************** Lots to see and do in our lovely city -- Denver, Colorado.
