One highlight of our Summer of Frenzy was getting to see the Colossal Colon during a family visit to Denver.
(2006 note: The Colossal Colon is still touring! Check it out if you get a chance. Just to the website highlighted above for dates and places!)
| The display was set up in a tent in a mall parking lot. Denver was having a heat wave, but the volunteers were dealing bravely with adhesives not holding and similar difficulties. This is the entrance to the tent. |  |
 | Grandson Zach standing in front of one of the occasionally collapsing posters. |
| Posing for one of our most unusual family pics ever: my boy Mike (standing), Brookie Brooktrout, a family friend (far left), and the grands, Marisa, Morrissey and Zach. |  |
 | Lovely spokesmodel Marisa as Tour Guide |
| "I concur, Dr. Zach. An excellent public health outreach venue." |  |
 | Colonoscopy demo by Susan the Neon Nurse. If you look closely at the display screen, you can see Daughter Damaris womaning the camera, because I am pointing the business end of the scope her way. That little thing had amazing resolution! Note: Damaris, always a monument to propriety (these days) did not snap any pics of me putting the scope up my nose, or take advantage of other even less tasteful photo ops I gave her. |
