The tourist's photo of officer Larry DePrimo kneeling on the cold sidewalk to give the man boots that he bought at a nearby shoe store quickly became an online sensation, generating more than 325,000 "likes" on the NYPD's Facebook page.

About "Zoo Lights" at the Denver Zoo This Year

Denver Zoo will be transformed to a wild winter wonderland as guests wander under the canopy of lights throughout themed regions at this year's Zoo Lights. Families can journey to the North Pole region to visit with Santa, enjoy tasty treats at Ms. Claus' Sweet Shop and take a spin on the carousel. In this region kids can also take Denver Zoo's historic train ride, revamped this year with a special theme. Kids can help spot animals from long ago at the Yesterday's Zoo Train Experience. During the ride they will hear the story of Yesterday's Zoo, a place where now extinct animals roam, while learning why it's important to help today's animals and seeing characters from the book.

Zoo Lights Special Events

• VISITS WITH SANTA - NOV. 30-DEC. 23

Naughty and nice children alike can bring their Christmas wish lists right to Santa’s mailbox at the North Pole and visit with the big guy himself!

• ICECARVERS - SUNDAYS-THURSDAYS 6-8 p.m.

See Santa’s helpers with power tools create a special ice-carving garden, filled with more animal sculptures than before.

Such a fun event for the entire family, and so far this year, very nice weather to enjoy the Zoo Lights at the Denver Zoo.

Free Days are funded in part, by the citizens of the metro area via the SCFD 0.1% sales and use tax. It's a great value, so check out the dates below and have a free day! Additionally, The Tier I organizations (Denver Museum of Nature and Science, Denver Zoo, Denver Art Museum, Denver Botanic Gardens and The Denver Center for the Performing Arts) provide bookmarks listing their free admission days.

How to Win

John W. Hickenlooper, Facebook

A drought destroyed $100 million of revenue. Wildfires incinerated 238,000 acres of forest. And then seventy people were shot in a movie theater. It's not easy being the governor of Colorado.

Hickenlooper told the magazine

“I felt, in some deep way, privileged and blessed to be a part of their lives,” he said to Esquire. “You feel this incredible, intense connection…. I didn’t feel paralyzed. In a funny way, I almost felt released.”

Congrats, Governor Hickenlooper!

It's Cookie Time!!  Below is a great recipe I got from Kraftrecipes.com
