Day #14, Denver to Colorado Springs

Friday Oct 23, 2009 - Today we traveled from Denver to Colorado Springs (That's 92 miles).
This is what we saw between the 2 towns.

We went to an area called the Garden of the Gods. It is a park donated to the city of Colorado Springs as long as they would not charge for access to the area. There are some amazing big rocks. The upper left photo is Nina coming to pick me up after my hike.

Then we went to a small town named Manitou Springs. They are having "coffin races" down their main street tomorrow. We were going there tomorrow to ride the "Cog Train" up Pikes Peak but because of the "coffin races" we will be waiting until the next day.
