This morning Amelia and I visited my brother Brian and we all went for a trip to the Cherry Creek Mall play area. As nap time approached, Amelia and I started to head home. Every usual way I take to get back to the east-side of Denver was blocked by roadblocks to make way for Denver Marathon runners (annoying!!!).

My frustration was minimal until forced to detour a few miles out of the way to get around the race. As I was heading to I25, I was rear ended while at a complete stop.

Thankfully Brian walked the few blocks over and helped keep Amelia happy while I worked out the details with the police officer.
