When the days get longer (and a bit warmer) what do you do to pass the time?  Mile High Marketplace (formerly the Mile High Flea Market) is the one place in Colorado where everyone gets what they want every single weekend. You can find tools, tires, turkey legs and beer (for the adults), rides, toys and tasty treats for the kids, fresh roasted chiles, antiques, furniture, crafts and flea market finds.  Plus it’s open every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 7:00 am – 5:00 pm at I-76 and 88th (north of downtown).  Admission is just $3 per adult and kids under 12 are admitted free.  

FREE DAY : Sunday, April 17 – Denver Museum of Nature and Science.
