This photo is of a place called Old Saint Charles in Missouri. It is a historic area where the city is preserving the old value it has. Although it is just one photo, it is significant to me, because what you are seeing was built by African Americans in the early 20th century. Today, the area is surrounded by wealthy, white people. This is a common trend we see today where African Americans built areas but are taken over by the white majority. Many beautiful things we create are taken from the original creators, and others are given the credit. I want people to be more aware of accurate history and not marginalize certain stories.

Last weekend, I went to Paradise Cove! It was a beautiful and very quiet area, which allows for an extremely peaceful experience. This is definitely the place to visit if you are looking for somewhere to enjoy nature without it being crowded. It is a 3-hour drive from north Denver and costs 6 dollars to park for however long you want to stay. It is a moderate hike to the cove but is totally worth it once you get there! Below are some pictures I took during my experience.

I think it’s safe to say that for generations before us, and generations after us, Walt Disney and his creations have impacted the lives of millions of people. No matter your age or your background, Disney is a household name that instantly lights up a room and brings a smile to your face. As a hardcore Disney fan and wannabe Disney princess, I can confirm the impact Walt and his mouse, Mickey, have made on my life. I have been to Walt Disney World in Orlando Florida half a dozen times; I’ve been on a Disney Cruise twice; I have a wall of Mickey ears in my bedroom, and my bookshelves are lined with Disney books, movies, and merchandise. And so, when I discovered the magic of Walt Disney and Pixar would be coming to our neck of the woods, in Denver Colorado, I knew I had to be there.
