The dome of the Colorado state capitol in Denver was gilded in 1908 with 200 ounces of 24-karat gold ! We were able to tour the capitol site (outdoors only) on our visit there last October. It's an excellent example of neo-classical architecture, and has an interesting history behind it. I made this shot from our hotel room balcony.
Note: we have company with us for the next week and my time to post daily and to visit fellow bloggers will be quite limited - hence today's late post. I will find time to read all of your comments; I just may not be able to respond until later next week.
