Colorado Springs

Today, my mother an I took a day trip to Colorado Springs to visit our dear friend, Lindsey. Me and Lindsey took dance lessons together way back when we both lived in Wisconsin. And now we have reunited in Colorado!! She toured us all around town. We went to a mexican place downtown CS which was really good ;) Then we traveled to the Garden of the Gods which is this really awesome rock formation. Some people were rock climbing but we just hiked around and had some fun. Next we went into a small town near Pikes Peak called Manitou Springs. They have these naturally carbonated springs with fountains all around the town. You could fill up water bottles or simply sample the water out in the open. Each one tasted a little different because of the location of the various springs. Very cool experience. (some tasted alright, but some- not so much!) Lol. Aand... my goal while I was out in Colorado was to find someone to teach me how to snowboard. Lindsey offered to teach me... mission accomplished! Cant wait for the winter! Thanks, Lindsey for a fabulous trip!!
