The Perfect Landing

 

Mt Blue Sky

This month, my husband has been going for Cardiac Exercise Rehabilitation in a cardiology center in our Colorado Front Range area a few times a week, following the coronary bypass surgery he had in January. He's been doing well and building up stamina and strength as he continues to heal. I often accompany him, and sit in the center's lounge and read a book. 

One day last week, after his exercise session, we decided to go to a restaurant at the nearby Centennial Airport for lunch, called The Perfect Landing. We heard they had a delicious menu and a nice view of some of the takeoffs and landings of the local air traffic.

We weren't disappointed! It was exciting to watch the jets and smaller planes take off or land while we dined.

My husband had the Corn Flake Crusted Crispy Walleye Fish on a Baugette (top photo in the collage), and I had the Maine Lobster Roll on a Portuguese Split Bun (bottom in the collage above)  Both were 

delicious!

 

My husband has been advised to eat a Mediterranean Diet post-op. and we have been eating that way very vigilantly, so this was a rare treat and the first time we dined out since his surgery.

Another treat was seeing the magnificent snow-capped Rocky Mountains in the distance from the restaurant windows!  March is usually Colorado's snowiest month and happily, the mountains have been getting large snowfalls while our front range area has not seen excessive snow.

A view of the distant Rocky Mountains from Denver International Airport, east on the Colorado plains. Quite a different view!

The local deer have been enjoying the warmer days that we've had lately.

Relaxing in the sun and dreaming of Spring!

PS: Thank you to all who commented on last week's post about my attending the PBS Antique Roadshow last May! See that post on this link. I received the following information follow-up this week about the three episodes that will be shown soon and the special antiques that the appraisers discovered:

"Catch the episodes when they air on Rocky Mountain PBS! Airing Mondays at 7:00 PM from March 24 to April 7: March 24: Premiere episode featuring a 1954 Marilyn Monroe military defense ID photo, a ca. 1970 Panama hat, and an Andy Warhol Golden Shoe collage. March 31: Roadshow strikes gold in Colorado with amazing finds, including Paul Revere Jr. silver tablespoons, a 1942 DC Comics promotional Superman figurine, and a 1974 Sam Gilliam June 5 acrylic painting.

Wow! A $400,000 treasure! I wonder what that was!
