Where to go...

I've got a week long training coming up that I need to take for work and I can't seem to decide which location would be most fun.. Anywhere, by yourself, is boring for 1 full week. For the fall, its offered in Knoxville TN, Atlanta GA and Denver CO. 

Perks for each...

1.) Knoxville---Its only like 2 1/2 hours from Nashville so I could drive over Thursday evening when I finish and spend the entire weekend with my bestie (Olivia) in Nashville.


2.) Atlanta-Good shopping, I'm familiar with the town and surrounding areas PLUS...I could DRIVE there and have my own vehicle for the entire week.

3.) Denver- This is kinda my top choice right now-Nic thinks he could get off work so he could fly out there with me and basically spend 1 week doing NOTHING while I'm in "schooling" then we could stay a few extra days and white water raft, visit Georgetown, check out Pike's Peak Country, visit Central City & Black Halk and of course, SKI!
Georgetown
Located just 42 miles west of Denver, Georgetown is a delightful Victorian village set in a spectacular mountain valley with 200 restored buildings from the 1870’s. The main street has shops and restaurants and many of the old homes have been turned into antique stores. 
Pikes Peak Country
 Pikes Peak Country is located 60 miles south of Denver and features more than 40 attractions centered around 14,000-foot  high Pikes Peak. Things to see include the Air Force Academy, one of three United States military colleges; the famous Broadmoor Resort with its lake and three golf courses; the Pro Rodeo Hall of Fame with its exhibits on this exciting professional sport; and Garden of Gods which has gigantic 500-foot high red sandstone rock monuments at the base of Pikes Peak.
Central City & Black Hawk
Once called the “Richest Square Mile on Earth”, Central City & Black Hawk are two historic old mining towns from the 1870’s that have come alive. Located 34 miles west of Denver, the two towns offer more than 30 casinos with over 10,000 slot machines, blackjack tables and poker games.The two cities are also known for having some of the best-preserved Victorian architecture in the West.  

I need to book this asap and the training isn't until October. My fear is that I'll book this wonderful Denver trip and then Nic will get caught up with work and not be able to come. Denver alone=BORING!
