We went through the Garden of the Gods http://www.gardenofgods.com/, which is a
phenomenal display of red sandstone rocks in various formations. It was donated to the City of Colorado
Springs by the children of Charles Elliot Perkins. These sandstone rocks are just amazingly
beautiful. What is more amazing is that
the City of Colorado Springs continues to abide by the donor’s request that
these geological formations are available to the world, at no cost. The City of Colorado Springs has added
additional features which can command fees, but the spirit of the donation is
being maintained.
We were able to find an area in which we could have a late
afternoon lunch picnic. That was really
special. A great bonus to our trip to
the Yellowstone!
