Garden Of The Gods
Road trip, day one! Me and Ulla left Denver and Alex behind for a little while and hopped in the car. We set out to Santa Fe, NM, but stopped a couple time along the way. The Garden Of The Gods is in Colorado Springs (home to the U.S. Air Force Academy, the U.S. Olympic Committee, NORAD and other right-wing stuff. Beautiful spot (and hot) and when we were trekking around the park, we realized we hadn't really seen American tourists yet. Now we did.
And if you're ever in Santa Fe, be sure to check out Silver Saddle Inn. Friendly staff, great recommendations for food, laid back--and there's a Calamity Jane room. Psych!
