We're here!
Doug and I hit the road about 9:00 AM this morning and stopped at the unfortunately few view points. We took pictures where we could though...and my goodness were they beautiful. I've never felt so small driving between those Colorado mountains before.
As mentioned yesterday, Doug, Alex, and I planned to meet up at an Open House for an apartment in one of the areas which we are hoping to live. Unfortunately, as Doug and I arrived Denver, Alex called saying the complex has just signed a lease to someone. Despite the disappointment of not having a prospective living situation in our sights, we actually realized that location isn't exactly what we're looking for. So win win for all of us, I suppose.
The three of us had a little reunion lunch and asked our waitress for some helpful suggestions as we look for housing and jobs in the downtown Denver area. She was unbelievably helpful. Here we go networking already...
Currently we are in a coffee shop in the Highlands area in Denver, CO. All of us have our internet devices out and we're searching Craigslist with apartments on the mind. We have opened our options to 2-bedrooms as well as 3-bedrooms since one of our apartment/real estate contacts mentioned how challenging it is to find 3-bedroom places in the area of our liking.
We plan on driving around some of the neighborhoods which we would like to live in right after this...then we head to Fort Collins to stay with Alex's generous friend Kat for a week...but hopefully less if we find a place soon!
More updates to come soon! Bye! :)
