Colorado Springs






Durelle played golf again today...this time at Peterson Field. That precluded her getting to visit the Garden of the Gods west of Colorado Springs. So I drove through and took a few pictures for her. Then I went by a favorite old restaurant from nearly 40 years ago. There are two pictures in the post which will have meaning to only two people, Cindy and Mark. Mark's perennial order was, "Two beef tacos, a Coke and sopapillas for desert". When we first started going there, it was often the terminus for a Sunday morning trail ride. There was a watering trough and a hitching rail out back of the resaurant. Now it's surrounded by a Best Buy and many others of that ilk. Colorado Springs is still growing at a rapid rate. Then I got ready to leave tomorrow...checked air, fluids, etc. Tomorrow is Wakeeny, Kansas, and I expect Durelle will be watching the Ryder cup en route.

Hi- When I saw those last pictures I could hear Durelle saying"NO" to climbing them. Golf is much easier.

Classic memories, Dad. Thanks for the virtual memory tour. Don't suppose Senor Manuel's is still around for the best chile relleno?
