Garden of the Gods is a must visit If you are ever in the Colorado Springs area, Garden of the Gods is a must visit. This National Landmark is home to gigantic sandstone rock formations. Not far from Garden of the Gods lies Pikes Peak and the Rocky Mountains. I enjoy this photo because of […]
There were 8 or 9 goats running about on the edge of the trail I was on my way up to the summit of Mount Evans in the summer of 2014 when I came across a herd of mountain goats. The weather was absolutely perfect for a day in the mountains, and the goats were […]
