Denver Colorado Summer 2024 Vacation, GVM, Sheila and Baby Bonnie

 MEOWOLF Art Museum Denver, It was $50 a ticket entry per person. 3 levels of unknowns. Was it interesting and unique = yes! Could it have cost $20 bucks per person, also yes. The Meowolf Location, is convenient  to the center of Denver, Colorado. Very popular, well attended art museum. Post-visit, I still don't know how to describe it. 














Next up, "Garden of the Gods." This is a free nature experience that is walkable, beautiful, unique, cool and stroller friendly. It is located just outside of Colorado Springs, Colorado, the 2nd largest city in Colorado and about 1 hour drive south from Denver. 











Next up the RINO, neighborhood located just a tad north of Downtown Denver. This is a 3 block commercial, industrial, residential mixed urban area of Art, Eateries, Hotels, Nightlife, Food, Breweries and walkable action. We ate @ YARDBIRD and our family luckily got sat next to former NBA baller Andre Miller. He conversed with us some hoops stories and  athlete insights. Good times.









Last up a Potpourri of Denver, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and Colorado Vacation Photos. Overall our family had a good time. Our AirBnb week-long Rental was a 1 bed, 1.5 bath, 1 Living Room with a kitchen basement located just east of the pristine, enviable Washington Park neighborhood in south Denver. Our rental was close to the University of Denver, a small college and also near the Platt Park neighborhood. We did not spend anytime in Downtown Denver or the Baker neighborhood unfortunately. Denver is  legit, spacious and easy to hang out in. I've now been twice and am a fan of the Mile Hile City.

Sad News. Tim Harrington of Austin, Texas passed away in mid-February 2024 from a heart attack. His Memorial Service is 2/29/2024 2 pm, @ Austin Ridge Bible Church in Westlake.

The Above Photo was taken by Jim Innes during his Podium Eulogy talk for Tim Harrington. To Say the Westlake Austin Ridge Bible Church memorial service was PACKED, would be an understatement. Tim Harrington was a good man, and friend of many. He was relatable, authentic, funny, caring and social.    George Vance..... Just making sure you know that Tim Harrington passed away last weekend. Heart attack.  Tim’s Memorial Service will be: 2/29/24 at 2 PM at Austin Ridge Bible Church at 9300 Bee Cave Rd, Austin, TX 78733 in Westlake. At the Worship Center building. Please spread the word. GVM speaking here, "Tim showed up on my 40th birthday at Pitch N Putt for an afternoon of golf and bullshit. Tim was in good spirits that afternoon after boasting of his mega million dollar commercial fresh sale in SoCo. St. Elmo @ the ol' Hills Cafe.   Tim was a former SOUTHWESTERN door to door salesman and alumnus like me. A fellow bookman. Tim showed up @ my BookPeople booksigning event, for th

Keeping Up with ATX local and Real Estate Broker George Vance McGee....

So GVM, how are you feeling these days? What is the married, family man, new dad lifestyle?  Thanks for asking. Believe it or not, despite my youthful glow and aura, I'm now "over the hill" at 42 years of age. Physically I still feel pretty darn good. I try to cycle often on the hike and bike trail of lady bird lake. I've even bought a bicycle rack for my 2010 Nissan Rogue SUV.  As a Real Estate Industry person, I apologize if my lack of a Range Rover or Mercedes Benz car ownership doesn't suffice. In regards to health, being a newborn dad will really sober you up. Coffee has long since replaced booze in my blood system. When you routinely wake up circa 7:00 am to hug your baby daughter, change her diaper, feed her, have playtime and then drive her to daycare/preschool you need to feel healthy, rested and alert. 1 thing I do miss as a responsible married family man, is the carefree, outgoing, live music and bar hopping nightlife of Austin, Texas.
