More Pictures

Well, we're checking out this morning. Very sad. I went down for one last workout and now Parker and I are just packing up while Mike's in his last session.We're going to try to drive straight through to get home early tomorrow morning. I hope that means I can talk Mike into stopping at Caribou. :D It got cold this morning, we had a little dusting of snow and more coming tonight. How can you make this place any prettier? Just add snow! Yesterday Parker and I went around looking for good shopping. I was rather disappointed in Manitou Springs. Too touristy for me, although we did find the neat coffee shop there that you will see a picture of below. Oh, and I got a hand blown glass pickle ornament to add to our collection. Mike appreciated the randomness. We tried Old Colorado City too and the options were better there. One shop called "the Holly Leaf" and another called "Holly Berry House. " Hehe. Didn't buy anything though. Really was rather a bust day for good shopping, but then why did I still buy things?? Got a "The Broadmoor" shirt, just cause. I don't think I paid full price for anything I bought though; was all about the sale racks, even at the Broadmoor. Keva Juice for suppper and then a swim and early bed. Well, time for packing. More pictures are below.


We tried to take some family pictures this morning. It's been something I've been wanting to do, but haven't liked myself in pictures. So finally I'm at a place where I don't mind pictures and what better background than our current local? They didn't turn out great, but maybe as good at I can get if not paying for a professional? I was going to ask a certain friend I know that takes some pretty good shots, but she never comes home...:P




Parker's kicked back and watching "Max & Ruby."

This was Parker and I at the "Yerba Mate" coffee shop yesterday. It was very, um, alternative. Good food, and cozy atmosphere, but rather hippy-ish. Yummy carob chip cookies.
