That definitely sounds like Denver of my youth. I used to get up with the sun in the summer, make myself breakfast, hop on my bike and spend the day in Washington Park (a pretty big place) ending by swimming in the north lake in the afternoon, then home by dark. A kid on his own all through that, and nobody worried. You definitely could not do that today.

The diversity is the "secret sauce" of America, that and the renewal of the dream in each generation's immigrants.
