DCC 2015 - Part 1

Yesterday, we went to the Denver Comic Con. :) For Micah, Asher and me, it was a return. Nathan and Noah were first-timers. This was the extent Nathan was willing to dress up, lol. (His shirt says "I am Groot.") Asher went as Star Lord and Micah was Drax. (All three characters are from Guardians of the Galaxy.)

Noah and I opted not to dress up this year. (In sticking with the Guardians theme, I'd have needed to paint myself green and I wasn't really up for that, lol. Noah didn't have any desire to be a racoon or paint himself any color.)

So. After getting the younger two through weapons check and getting our bearings, we enjoyed some time in the Maker type rooms...with all sorts of cool tables showcasing 3D printers, video games, other interactive games, electronics kits, and other fun stuff. Here are Asher and Nathan playing pong at the SparkFun table...

Though 4/5 of us could happily have spent more time in that area, a certain youngest son was quite insistent that we go to the exhibition hall, where we people watched and browsed the merchandise and artists gallery. I made Noah take this picture of Nathan and I with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man...

And we eventually found this booth with lots and lots of HeroClix figures...which made boys particularly happy.

After making some purchases and eating lunch, we continued our browsing and people watching into the afternoon. 

We left mid-afternoon to beat the traffic. Here was our view as we headed back to the parking garage:

Yup. Loads of awesome people. :)
