Things to do in Colorado!
Garden Of The Gods
Garden of the Gods is a beautiful park and a national natural landmark with stunning geological formations, worth the short drive to visit!
Manitou Springs
This mountain town has cute shops and restaurants with beautiful views of the mountains. If you are a beer lover, Manitou Brewing Company is our favorite, and their food is great too!
Till Kitchen
Our favorite restaurant in Colorado Springs. Farm inspired
Pikes Peak - America's Mountain
Depending on the weather on top of Pikes peak, its worth the windy roads to get up to the 14,114 FT mountain. We have driven up this mountain several times in 60mph winds, icy conditions(wasn't our smartest move) and sunny clear beautiful days.
U.S. Olympic Training Center
Home of the USA olympics, check it out!
Cheyenne Mountain Zoo
This Zoo is one of my favorites. Great views of colorado springs, mountains, red rocks and garden of the gods. You can even feed the giraffes!
