After a rather long cold snap, starting today the temperatures here in Denver are back in the 80s, which means it is once again time for strolling and biking through Washington Park. Of course, some people actually take to the water, such as the paddleboarder in the photograph above, bringing his dog along for a ride across Smith Lake. You can also rent paddle boats and traverse the lake that way, too. What I want to know is why Washington Park only rents plastic, bright yellow paddle boats, while City Park, the city's largest, and home to the Denver Zoo and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, has swan boats? Is Washington Park not good enough for swan boats? I definitely intend to talk to my alderman, or whatever the hell they are called out here, as soon as possible about this. I am now retired, after all, and have lots of time to devote to such trivial matters, to the dismay of almost everyone. What can I say? Somebody has to do it.
