IN Denver.
Yet, I still think downtown is bit far. 6 miles. Parking is pain though. You can ride the light rail (train) or bus. Which is great. I've done this many times.
I tell people I live in "Suburbs in the City". Still in the city, yet, some "suburban" happenings.
The happenings I think of are the wild animals in my neighborhood.
In this neighborhood we have squirrels (although they tell me they have those in the city too), foxes, coyotes and rabbits. To name a few. These don't include the wild birds or stray cats that roam the neighborhood.
There are two golf courses nearby. The foxes normally live there. They then over-populate and are moved out of town.
The next summer, the squirrels and rabbits are rampant. They have no predator except the domestic dogs.
Then the following summer? The rabbits and squirrels will be gone.
Foxes and coyotes will be back.
Truth be told, I like the summers and falls of the foxes and coyotes.
They don't eat my flowers. They keep running.
The rabbits? They stick around for a bit.
In fact, I've named the few in our yard.
The first one is Charlotte. Then there is Sam. Now there is a baby named Bob. (Ask Lily about all the Bob's in our life)
My kid's roll their eyes at me when I talk about Charlotte. As they are sure we have more than these three bunnies living in our yard. I've been told "It's not the same one".
Although, the other day, I was told to not let Dakota (the dog we are dog sitting) out as "Charlotte was in the yard." They tried hard not to smile when they actually called the bunny Charlotte, instead of some "random rabbit in the yard".
We are dog sitting our dog from Hawaii. We have a bunny name Charlotte.
