Going to Colorado Springs, CO


This is what we saw last evening
from our balcony in Gunnison, CO.

And this is what we saw this morning
from our balcony!  The "W"on the top
of the hill is for Western State Colorado
University.

Taken just after Monarch Pass at 11,000
feet.  Never thought we would see snow
on May 19th!

An eerie scene on Route 24.

The high alpine meadow.

We are amazed at how small and 
delicate these little pine trees
are on the lower left corner.

This herd of horses agreed to let
me take their photo.

A weather worn house along the way.
Still waiting for the sun to make
an appearance.

By the time we reached the entrance
to Pike's Peak, we were surrounded
by a serious snowstorm!
