While sitting at the gate for my flight to Alaska (yes, I'll be posting pix) I realized that I have yet to share Colorado Springs from the beginning of the month. It has certainly been an interesting September. A bit of a whirlwind, and to say that I've preoccupied is an understatement. Yet, enough of my whining, and on to the pix!
I had the pleasure of working in Colorado Springs. It was a double pleasure because I had the opportunity to be with two of my fabulous colleagues. After a day of traveling with a food hangover, we went to the Woodstock fair the day before and I indulged, it was a treat to have my breath taken away from this immediate view. Not too shabby, huh? Even better is that each morning I was greeted with the same view as I left my hotel.
We decided to enjoy the nature the city had to offer while working, and a 'hiking' we went in the Garden of the Gods. I'll let them speak for themselves.
Did I mention that I had a spectacular view from my hotel? One of the things that I absolutely loved about the mountains is how they looked different throughout the day. In the morning they had this spectacular orange-pink color, late morning/early afternoon the sky was crisp and clear, late afternoon you could tell there were storms a brewing up there. It absolutely amazed me how the color of the mountains changed with the weather on them! I adore sunrises and this one has to be one of my faves!!!It is my hope that I have the opportunity to visit Colorado again. I definitely could've used more time there! The natural beauty of the state has plenty to offer!
