Colorado Springs

Happy Mother's Day to all you Moms!
This was an unexpected really fun day and a half in Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs and Old Colorado City.

Garden of the Gods

This is 1350 acres of beautiful red sandstone formations.  The land was purchased by Charles Perkins (CEO of the Chicago Burlington Quincy Railroad) in 1879.  After he died in 1909, his family gave the the land to the City of Colorado Springs.  It's been a free park since.

Seven Falls

Seven cascading waterfalls tucked in the Cheyenne Canyon.  185 steps (or and elevator - Bob) to the Eagle's Nest observation deck.  It was a beautiful sunny morning.

The Broadmoor 

Truly a 5 star luxury historic hotel (est 1918) ....I love our RV, but it would have been REALLY nice to stay here.  The grounds are just beautiful!

The US Airforce Academy

I really wanted to see the Cadet Chapel....It was pretty amazing!  Bob, my airforce man, told me ALL about the B52 Bomber!

The Outakes:
Still trying to perfect the selfie, we finally are seeing wildlife....oh, that's because the mobile home park folks down the road are feeding the deer, and did Bob say "your BEARable today honey"!?
