Garden of the Gods


Wednesday we stopped by Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs while on our way north. We enjoyed the amazing geology and took a little hike. We saw some beautiful magpies nesting in the trees at the base of the rock formations. We were amazed by a lot of brave rock climbers attempting to scale the rocks that they were allowed on. At the Visitors Center, Oliver found some prehistoric squid painted on the mural above our heads. Then we drove up to Denver and met our friend Lyn Davies and her daughter Brynn at a restaurant in Englewood. Unfortunately, Jeff had to stay at home because he was sick. Then we drove to Superior, CO to stay with our Friends the Cochrans who moved here from Knoxville last summer.
