I got together with my friends and former University of Denver Bookstore co-workers last night at Spanky's Urban Roadhouse, just to the west of the DU campus. Since the DU hockey team was playing at Magness Arena last night, and Spanky's is a popular pre-game gathering spot, I got there early to claim a table, carefully nursing my River North IPA until the rest of the gang arrived. It was a very pleasant evening, and fun learning what everyone has been up to lately. From left to right in the photograph above are Bill, the former Operations Coordinator for the store, who has just returned with his wife Renee from a dream vacation in Switzerland; Darrel, who recently spent some time at a rented bungalow near Santa Fe's Plaza with his wife Linda; Tony, who still works at the DU Bookstore as the Manager of the Quick Copy Center; Owen, the former DU Bookstore Computer Center Manager, who now works for DU's Information Technology Department; Wally, the former Operations Manager for the store, who has just returned from a road trip to Michigan; and Joe, who still works as a teacher at the Art Students League of Denver, but retired last month from his part-time job at the DU Bookstore. And then, of course, there is me, the former Finance Manager for the store, taking the photograph, and now footloose and fancy free. Great to see all you guys again! Keep on keeping on, as we used to say.
