July 10 - Moving on

We decided to stay in The Springs another couple of days and then move on to the fairgrounds near Golden, but couldn't stay in the same site so had to hitch up and move about 100'.  We had a farewell to Colorado Springs breakfast at the Mountain Shadow Restaurant.  Great green chile sauce there!

July 6 - Air Force Academy

The chapel at the Air Force Academy is the place to see when you visit.  It is actually four chapels.  The Protestant Chapel is on the top floor and beneath it are the Catholic, Jewish, and Buddhist Chapels.  The photos below were taken in the spectacular Protestant Chapel.

July 5 - Sunset

Galen and I went for a drive in the Garden of the Gods at the end of the day and watched the sun go down.

July 5 - Balanced Rock

This photo of Balanced Rock was taken in Garden of the Gods.  I don't know who the people are but they are good for showing the size of the rock.

June 28 - Garden of the Gods

After a delicious breakfast at Bon Ton's, we went to the Garden of the Gods and hiked the Gateway Trail out between the rocks.  It was hard to pick out just a few good photos of this gorgeous place on a gorgeous day.  It was 75-80 degrees with low humidity.  What a treat!

June 27 - Pikes Peak UMC

The church building is over 100 years old.  The congregation is small and friendly.  Galen and I went to the Sunday school class before the service and took part in an interesting and lively discussion about sin, repentance, and forgiveness.  The minister was on vacation so one of the lay leaders delivered an excellent message.  We look forward to returning to this church again next Sunday.
