Date Night at Red Rocks

Last night Marcos and I left Rory with our neighbor while we attended a concert at the Red Rocks Amphitheater. It was the longest we've ever been away from her, and I'm not ashamed to say that I enjoyed every minute of it. We danced, we sang, we drank overpriced beers. Of course, we used our baby monitor app to check on Rory no less than 20 times, but it felt good to let loose and think about something other than diapers and baby proofing for a few hours.

The concert was Jack Johnson featuring Alo, and it was by far the best concert I've ever been to. Jack Johnson sings our wedding song "Angel", and Zach Gill, lead singer of Alo, sings "Watch Them Grow", the song I danced to with my dad at my wedding, so both artists are pretty meaningful to us.

Jack Johnson could sing in a public restroom and still put on a great show, so having the opportunity to see him perform at one of the greatest venues in the world was like a dream come true.

Red Rocks is an outdoor amphitheater in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. It's surrounded by giant red rocks that serve as natural acoustics, and the view is amazing. There isn't a bad seat in the whole park. If you ever make it to the Denver area, make sure Red Rocks is on your to-do list.




Obligatory selfie.
