I took a short walk in Denver's Washington Park the other day, and snapped still another photograph of the Eugene Field House, built in 1875 and occupied by Field between 1881 and 1883, when he was the managing editor of the Denver Tribune. The house was moved to Wash Park from West Colfax back in 1927, with the help of "the unsinkable Molly Brown" of Titanic fame. However, unlike every other photo that I have taken of that place, when I downloaded the photograph into my computer, none other than the ghost of Eugene Field was in the frame. Strangely enough, that ghost looks vaguely familiar, but no matter - it is good to know that Field liked Denver so much that he decided to stay here and haunt the place.
