    I had an absolutely amazing time exploring Denver on this walk with Jared. He is extremely enthusiastic and passionate to share his love for the city, and this comes through in every sentence he speaks! He told me very interesting facts about Denver's history and I could really picture how the place evolved from a little gold digger reloading point to the metropolis it is today. I could not have had a better guide than him, his lecture skills are excellent and our conversation over the closing beer in the Turnhalle just as enjoyable! Keep your enthusiasm and good luck with your business going forward, Jared, you are brilliant!
