Colorado Springs

We left Alamosa on Friday, August 18^th and drove to Colorado Springs for an 11-night stay at Cheyenne Mountain State park. We always visit Colorado Springs in late-August to take care of our annual doctor and dentist visits.

On Monday, August 21^st, we viewed the solar eclipse from Cheyenne Mountain, where it was 90% in Colorado Springs.

We enjoyed dinner on Tuesday night with my two daughters Kim and Jen and two granddaughters Audrey and Hannah.

We took our motorhome to the local Freightliner service center in Fountain on Thursday for its annual servicing. It was lost among all those trucks.

Last Friday we met our friends Kris and Jan from Albuquerque who were overnighting in Colorado Springs on their way back from Wyoming where they saw the total eclipse of the sun. We drove them to Westcliffe, where we met our friends Vince and Lisa for lunch. Then we all went to Vince and Lisa’s house to spend the afternoon and take in the great views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.

On the way home, we stopped in Pueblo for dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant, Jorge’s Sombrero.

Yesterday we "moved" to Littleton, a suburb of Denver, for an 8-night stay at Chatfield State Park.
