What better way to hail summer? We see it on the horizon, we wave wildly. Come here, you beautiful thing. Let’s get this started with a smile or eleven.
For the fifth year, we visited Lakeside, a Denver institution. Is it Denver’s fanciest amusement park? No way. It’s unpretentious and slightly grubby. It clings to mid-century signage and is proud of being more than a footnote in Denver’s history. It’s more than a footnote in our family’s history, too.
I love documenting our Lakeside nights with photos, comparing them to years-past. It’s a wonderful way to watch the kids grow. They’re a daring bunch with strong stomachs. I couldn’t be more proud.

It looks perfect! We are taking a family vacation in CO this summer, and I may have to put this on our list! We’re always looking for fun, but not necessarily touristy things to do! 🙂
I hope you have fun while you’re in CO. Let me know if you want any more ideas or tips.
That silhouette shot should be blown up and framed! Lovely!
Thanks! We try to catch that moment every year. Also, if you’re coming to CO this summer, let me know. I’d love to meet somewhere.
