I camped at a reservoir in the middle of the Kansas high plains and woke up to steady rain that luckily was not flooding the grassy knoll I chose to pitch the tent. I found out with this new 2-man tent I have that you can take down the tent while keeping up the rainfly.

Denver was 400 miles down the road, so I found an AirBnB near downtown. I walked from the Highland neighborhood, across I-25, the river, and the tracks into lower downtown. Then I kept on walking all the way thru upper downtown to the Colorado State Capitol, which sits on the biggest hill in town.

Worn out enough, I took an Uber to the Nocturne Jazz club that featured a double-drummer show that honored Max Roach, Charles Mingus, and Duke Ellington. There was a lot of color and story to listen to in the interplay between the drummers. I was lucky to be at that show.
