Life in Denver

Oldest daughter Erin lives in Denver.  She lives in the Stapleton area.  Once it was the old Stapleton airport, but not it is an absolutely huge housing development.  Houses go up here at an astonishing rate. Such is the case with all of Denver. 43 people per day move to Denver.  Downtown buildings are sprouting like weeds.  In all this chaos the is some very nice planning. In my daughters area they have magnificent green spaces that have been well planned and are a pleasure to use.  Yesterday we biked over to Sylvie's school for the bake sale. We stopped at the brand new super market.  There are so many places to eat around here you would never get done if you tried a different one every week. By the time you got half way through that many more would have opened up. 

The area we are in shows what you can do with some good planning and high density occupation.  A favorite as written before is the mass transit.  This morning with Sylvie we buzzed to REI and did some shopping.  Along the river the city has invested massive sums in river scaping.  Walkways, bikeways, and even nice places to kayak have grown all along the river.

The temptation to move to Denver is great, but big city life just does not seem right for the Kadizzles.  The ability to get around in Denver is a real plus.  The rail system is good and even going to get better. For older people good mobility means a lot.

Now for a little politics.  Mrs Kadizzle insisted on showing Mr. Kadizzle a short video on Trumps corrupt dealing with the Puerto Rico disaster.  Somehow the Trump gang managed to give a 300 million dollar contract to an electric company in Montana with two employees.  Instantly it was obvious how the dots connected. Large campaign contribution to Trump greased the skids for the small inexperienced company to land a wonderful contract that was not put out on bids.  Who cares about these minor robberies?  The Republicans gift to the rich which is taking place will be the mother off all robberies.  The rich will get 80% of the tax breaks once the Republicans bamboozle the Hoopleheads.

All a working class Republican wants are plenty of guns, and a good dose of Republican Jeeesus. Trump knows working class Republican don't understand math any better than he does.  Republicans know how to work the scam like a carnival game.  Give the poor dolts a little candy and give the rich contributors a meal.  The poor guys will be watching football and eating Fritos bought by Trump, while the rich guys laugh in the expensive box seats up above.  Isn't that the way it is supposed to work?  If you can fool the dolts shouldn't you?  Republican morality, and the swamp draining is going great.  The new alligators with make American Great Again stamped on them are thriving.
