My friend Mark is off to England in a little over a week, and before we went to the Denver County Fair this past Saturday, we stopped at the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver, where Mark picked up some gifts to take to his many friends over there. In addition to photo books on Colorado and Denver, Mark stopped at Sportsfan (as seen in the photo above) to buy assorted sports memorabilia. Evidently, Brits are big NFL football fans, and one of Mark's former classmates at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, who he will also be visiting, is a big Denver Nuggets fan. Go figure. In any case, Mark plans to visit Bath for a few days, and then spend the rest of the time visiting friends in and round Leeds. Yes. Leeds. It reminds me of that old joke about a sweepstakes contest: First prize - a week in Leeds! Second prize - two weeks in Leeds! Mark assures me, however, that it is a wonderful place to visit. He also wants to sell me London Bridge at a good price. Have a great time, Mark!
