This was Garden of the Gods and it was pretty cool. There were people rock climbing and I told Russell maybe that should be our new thing. 
Then we drove up to Pike's Peak. It cost $30 for us to drive up the road and we didn't even see the Bigfoot!
But it was a beautiful drive and the view from on top was amazing. It was 14,110 feet high (3 thousand feet higher then Timpanogos!). There was a gift shop at the top that got more of our money and Russ and I could feel the altitude up there with a tummy ache. But it was well worth it!
Oh wait, we did see Bigfoot! On the way home we drove through Aspen and that was an amazing drive. We drove over a 12,000 foot peak that day. I love the mountains and it was fun to be in the Rockies. Saturday we ended up in Moab. We stayed at a hotel with a swimming pool. We swam everyday of our vacation but two.
On Sunday we took a little hike. It was gorgeous and fun, but the bugs were out, the kids were slow and my patience was about gone so we didn't go the whole way. But we had a great Colorado vacation and now school!
