There is a sort of cyclical pattern to what I may blog about, and I know “home” is one theme that has come up time and time again. There are numerous definitions and quotes from people explaining just what home is. It truly is one difficult concept to put words to, yet it seems so easy to use the term and understand the meaning. In any event, I can easily now call Denver home. I’m almost scared to say that I went to Red Rocks for the first time tonight… but it was the experience of coming home (to my house) that briefly got me thinking, I know this city. I know as well as any other that Denver isn’t all that large. I also know that after living here for nearly five years, I really should know the city… but there’s something special about driving around or getting around that makes me feel pretty good about it.

One of my favorite aspects is knowing neighborhoods, and not only knowing neighborhoods because I have one friend that lives there, but in many cases it may be a neighborhood where I attended church a few years back, and then had one friend that worked around there. Or perhaps it’s a place where I first went out for a good meal, and now nearby is an apartment for a friend. I love this, I love that I can drive through the city and know it well enough to show it off to people. Moreover, I love that it is home.
