About a month ago Milo and I headed down to Colorado Springs to celebrate Marissa's 5th birthday at Chuck E. Cheese's. I think that place is Milo's very favorite place on Earth right now, he's still talking about the party! After the celebration I decided to drive on over to Garden of the Gods since it was a nice warm spring day. It seemed that a very large portion of Colorado Springs also had that idea, the parking situation was horrible but I know of a little parking lot with a great trail that can't be seen from the road. We were in luck, plenty of parking. We "hiked" the Siamese Twins trail. It is a mile round trip and only a 150 ft vertical gain so it was a fairly easy walk. I was so impressed that Milo walked the whole way and he had a great time too. After our hike we drove through the rest of the park and past Balanced Rock, no parking there so we just did a drive by. We need to do more of this over summer break I think!
I was glad I had my camera and captured some great shots of Milo and the gorgeous red rock formations.
