For those of you who want to come out and visit us this year, we are exploring some new places to take you to. :) This past weekend was beautiful out so we took advantage of our free Saturday and went for a drive on Gold Camp Road here in Colorado Springs. It was about a 1 1/2 hour drive total but only 26 miles! Thankfully we took a faster and smoother way back. You have to drive pretty slow because the road is so narrow. Going around curves....well, you don't know what's coming around that curve in the opposite direction. We had to pull over or reverse our car multiple times for people to pass by. It was scary! The views were so beautiful though. Nature is so breathtaking. There's no way you can't feel closer to God when experiencing his creations like this.We want to go back in the fall when all the aspens are yellow. They lined the road the whole way. I guess that's why they call it a golden road. This road took us to an old mining town, and then to a casino town called Cripple Creek. I didn't get any pictures of those towns because 1. I was feeding the babe and 2. We drove right through it to get back in time for the UK game.We love discovering our beautiful Colorado!
