Garden of the Gods and Pike's Peak, CO

Pike's Peak as seen from the

Serenity Deck at our hotel.

So glad the sun finally made

an appearance!

The foothills of the Rockies.

Closeup of Pike's Peak.

More foothills.

I never realized how huge

Colorado Springs was!

There is still building going on.

Pike's Peak as seen from the

Garden of the Gods entrance.

Not all formations in the Garden

of the Gods are red rock.

Taken in the Central Garden.

We were here last year in the snow.

Glad this time the sun was out!

 

Another angle of Pike's Peak,

known as America's Mountain.

We could not go up today because

the top half was snowed in.

Just to the left of the top center you

can see "Kissing Camels".

With a tear in my eye, it is time

to say good bye to the Rockies

and go east.

What a contrast in the land

as we head to Limon, CO!
