Colorado Springs - May 2007


OK--so it's not all about the beach. We traveled to Colorado Springs in May to attend the High School graduation of our nephew. And we do love the mountains (although the scuba can be a bit tough). This picture encompasses two of the sights--Garden of the Gods (in the foreground) and Pike's Peak. The clouds in the sky add to complete the scene. I'm not sure a cloudless sky would have worked better. Everyone needs to get a Rocky Mountain high sometime and there's no better place than Colorado Springs. I cannot fathom what people see about Denver--it is a big city with big city traffic and congestion. But the Springs still retains some of the foothills charm that makes it a great place to visit and, according to my brother-in-law, a great place to live. Though the beaches can be a bit rocky and the water sure is colder than Florida!
