Rollin thru

Yo Chris,
My laptop battery is almost out of juice, but I wanted to tell you that I'm in Colorado Springs, and I'll be in Denver tomorrow. I'd love to visit you, if you'd like to have me. Is there a good time? Any really bad times in the day? If you're on email, shoot me an email at uskowronski@gmail.com. I also emailed Rita, so she might give me the scoop. Hope to see you soon.
Best,
Uri

mayor giuliani visits chris!!!

okay, so i'm just back from here the great weekend the H3 ladies got to have with chris + here are some photos. every moment with him is the best moment ever + yes, we totally dolled up his room. we drove around during the weekend checking out the neighboring towns, the mall + especially chris wanted to show us the great little community of houses called arapahoe acres in englewood, a post war modernist development built between 1949-1957 that has amazingly been preserved + were totally cool. they were done by developer ernest hawkins + architects eugene sternberg, joseph dion + stanley yoshimura. a lot of the roofs just cleared the top of the front doors...totally cool! but coolest, was a stop at an homemade ice cream shop chris spotted to go to. when we were there, rudy giuliani stopped by to visit chris....

chris told gulliani to come on over to shake his hand......








of course he did!

















then we got this 'family' shot....








afterwards we visited chris' friend tom, who showed us this great photo of family + friends that came together to support him back home, what a cool guy!!!


chris showed us the beautiful view from the roof of the parking structure he mentioned....


couple moment....






mom + i with chris from the roof









the wonderful couple.

of course chris took every opportunity to offroad when he could on the streets. chris, you so crazy!


we walked through the farmers market + then met up with chris' friend sarah + her family for lunch, it was great meeting them + her daughter, little fearless anna.

as we're studying the human nervous system, i am of course trying to take a picture of the 2 of them + chris snaps his neck around to give me the signature look! damn boy, yo so funny, we were totally crackin' up!

mom + i left anna + chris dining on one of chris' favorites, tamales! like royalty....you can even catch a glimpse of some of the decorating on the wall....i know, i know, simply fabulous....

i wish i was still there hanging out!! craig's is a great place, chris' room is totally sweet + he's the greatest host ever. we love you chris!! can't wait to see you supa soon...

brokeback mountain

having a great time with the haudenschild ladies. yesterday, we visited an ice cream parlor called bonnie brae and we ran into presidential candidate rudy gulliani. i shook his hand twice, i must have been a good photo op. for him - the handicap guy....priceless campaign opportunity. also, we got our own picture taken with him. he does seem very likeable. later in the evening we walked down for some thai food and we shared a huge deep fried, whole sea bass. it was excellent. my therapy is coming along, the nurses and techs are starting to do less and less for me and i am starting to take over alot of my care. i should be getting out of here around the 29th of june. i am not sure where i will be going after that, but i am anxious to keep my therapy going. i am looking into a place called project walk in so cal. i am really determined to get my legs operating again. in the meanwhile i am really looking forward to my freedom. anyway, i will try and post the picture later.
i hope all is well. i am looking forward to seeing everyone back in the real world.
go cavs!
