GOOD BYE DENVER

No trip to Denver is complete without a visit to the Tattered Cover Bookstore. It's moved from Cherry Creek, Maeve's local shopping centre so it's more difficult to get to but David kindly took me there yesterday. I'd had indifferent reports about it so I was pleasantly surprised. The TC is now in a little theatre complete with stage and is just as lovely although smaller - I could live there. We arrived to the smell of really good coffee - the same green carpet and wonderful wooden bookshelves, large old comfortable sofas - such a welcoming space to read and browse. There were constant references to the theatre - a reading pit with some of the old theatre seats and the dummy reading a paper that was the signature of the Cherry Creek store sitting up some stairs to one of the boxes. It's a pure delight ---

Next stop - London.....
