My friend, David Clifton, manages/runs 'The Carpenter's Cupboard', a foodbank in Wheatridge, Colorado. The Cupboard services, on average, one hundred fifty people, per day, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday's. I had the privilege to photograph the efforts of the many volunteers this Easter week, 2013, and I've put up some of the images.

Flatiron Community Church,  Lafayette,  celebrated its fourth 'Shine' extravaganza last evening. Shine is huge party for people with disabilities - formal attire, escorts, food, live music, dancing and games. Over 1K guests were in attendance, and there were over fifteen hundred volunteers.  I hope that you'll  enjoy the pix.

Colorado Adaptive Sports sponsored a weekend 'sled hockey' tournament at the Ice Edge Arena in Littleton this weekend. The players are all disabled without the use of their legs. This didn't prevent them from playing, ' rock em' sock em' hockey' with plenty of cross-checking and slamming each other into the boards. One team from San Antonio, 'The San Antonio Rampage' was made up of injured war vets, and they flat out kicked butt...!

My old friend, David Clifton (he's the guy in orange vest), put on his annual Thanksgiving dinner yesterday, outside, in front of Denver City/County Building. 275 turkeys, hundred or so volunteers, rain, sleet, snow. Some folks waited in line three hours. Here are some images from the event. Peace
