Finally made it to Golden, CO after quite the long drive. Golden is such a great little town to hang out in. It was the first capital of Colorado and with Coors as a major player in the town it is kept up quite well. Plenty of locally owned shops to check out. You can grab a cup of joe and one of several local coffee shops, grab a pizza and beer at Woody's Woodfired Pizza, and finish off at one of several bars (from a wine bar to a biker bar).
My family lives here so accommodation has been a breeze. I try and get up early and head down to central Golden to walk Bean Dog along the creek. On our walks this week we have been checking out the bulldozers in the creek getting ready for the summer rush to Golden. The creek area and all of Golden come alive with tourists and outdoor enthusiasts every summer. At any given time you can watch kayakers navigating the creek (designed for kayaking). On weekends the Farmer's Market is a buzz with amazing local goodies. I always shoot down and grab a breakfast burrito before heading to either Noah Noah's or Higher Grounds for my coffee fix.
I will try and write an article on all there is to do in Golden in the next week or so.
Don't miss Golden next time you visit Denver!
