Excellent weekend at DenFur!
Aug. 27th, 2018 11:16 amI'm back from having a wonderful time at DenFur!
Last Wednesday, I saw Kathy Griffin perform at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House in downtown Denver. I originally planned to drive to Denver several hours before the show to do DoorDash deliveries. I got up to Castle Rock and realized I forgot to bring my ticket for the show. I was still able to drive back home, get the ticket and drive back to Denver before the show started.
I did a last-minute load of laundry Thursday morning before packing up for DenFur. Usually I begin packing a few days before a vacation to make sure I have everything. I arrived at the hotel around 1 PM and met Victor Redtail, my roommate. Victor and I drove to Broncos Field at Mile High so he could have pictures taken in his hawk fursuit holding a Kansas City Chiefs banner. We later went to JoAnne's fabrics so Victor could pick up a few items he needed. Thursday night, we saw the movie "The Happytime Murders."
I initially requested a mini-fridge for the room, but the hotel didn't have any available. Luckily, Victor brought his own fridge. Unlike my room at the same hotel at RMFC 2016, this room didn't have a microwave.
After opening ceremonies on Friday, I went to a nearby Circle K to do an ATM withdrawal and buy lunch and water. That night, Victor and I went to a Rockies vs. Cardinals baseball game at Coors Field. The Rockies lost 7-5.
Everyone at the hotel got an early wake-up call on Saturday when the fire alarm went off. One of the hotel staff members had accidentally set it off. I suited in the fursuit parade and was actually in the front row for the fursuit photo. I got lunch at Subway, then Victor and I picked up a pizza for dinner. The Guest of Honor cocktail hour happened that night.
After breakfast on Sunday, I did a few DoorDash deliveries in Aurora since there was a $2.50 pay boost for deliveries between 11 AM and 1 PM. At closing ceremonies, the con staff announced 2,086 people attended this year and raised $15,000 for Freedom Service Dogs. I got dinner at Burger King afterward, then managed to find a good parking space when I returned. I ended the night at the hotel bar with several other furries.
Victor brought his fridge and all his luggage down to his vehicle around 9 AM today. I showered and checked out of the hotel around 9:30.
