#126 Garden

It was a glorious day at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.
I'm so lucky to have such beautiful weather! 
Interesting sideline: The red rocks are bazillion-year-old sedimentary rock, which used to be covered with water or ice or both. Then there was an upheaval. The earth's crust "folded" and caused the horizontal to become vertical and we get to say "How pretty!" Because it IS pretty.
That is Pike's Peak in the background.
