This shot shows our hosts and Tree Fae amongst the gloriously golden Fall Aspens.

Kissing Camels in Garden of the Gods, zoomed in. TF says she doesn't see kissing camels when she looks at it.

My single favorite shot of the whole trip. Dismayed Aspen leaf is dismayed.

This is the shot that makes up one of the panels of the Garden of the Gods panorama. See the black looking trees in the canyon at center right? They're black because they burned in the Summer of 2012 during the Colorado Springs front range fires. The one pictured here burned all the way Northward up that canyon, and burned down the famous Flying W Ranch, a place I remember fondly both from my youth, and from when Selene and I took our kids there in the 90's.

This is Pike's Peak...as seen from Aaron and Valerie's driveway. This view does not suck.

Finally, a shot of Pike's Peak from just Northwest of the peak itself, a little ways outside of Divide, Colorado. This was taken the day after the previous pic from Aaron's driveay, showing how much snow clothed the peak overnight.

I woud visit with relatives and stay for a few days. When I got up in the mornings and looked out through the living room window at Pike's Peak my uncle would say: "Yep, it's still there."

Did you stop in at the ANA Money Museum?

Damn it! What do I need to do to get pics that are linked from somewhere else to display so that it is obvious when I screw up? I can't remember the coding anymore.
