Pikes Peak

We left Chicago and a few days later we were in Colorado Springs. Yes, we still want to move there...but we went up to Pikes Peak and drove to the top. All 3 of my family members were getting high altitude sickness so we didn't stay very long up there. It was a bit icy in places and oh so cold. We drove half way back down and pulled over for a picnic lunch in a nice area. Then made our way out and back on the road. The colors on the trees were in high color and made for a beautiful drive thru all sorts of mountains.
