Mike's B-Day!

Last weekend, Melissa and I spent my birthday in Denver! We had a great time going to the Denver Art Museum (DAM) and a Colorado Rockies baseball game. The major attraction at the DAM is a King Tut exhibit. We saw some fascinating statues and artifacts from ancient Egypt. Photography was not allowed inside the exhibit, but if you'd like to see some images of a few of the artifacts we saw, you can check out this exhibition preview.

Here are a couple of cool photos of the DAM:

The building on the left is the newer part of the museum.

Some photography was allowed outside the King Tut exhibit. Here are a couple of interesting pieces of art from the DAM:




Here are a couple of shots of Coors Field, one before the game and the other mid-pitch.


The Rockies beat the Cubs that night with an exciting 9th-inning, tie-breaking home run. It was a thrilling finish!
