Visit to Manitou Springs
If you ever get out here, you simply have to stop in the quaint little town on Manitou Springs. It’s one of those towns with one main street full of shops, restaurants and places that are created and owned by local business owners.
Manitou Springs is located just to the south and a little bit west of Colorado Springs. It was kind of funny, in a way, because we saw a lot of tourists and were thinking, “Well, I guess we can’t call ourselves tourists any more because we just moved here!”
Our Colorado Journey
One thousand miles doesn’t seem that long until you actually get in the car and start driving. We knew it was going to be an overnight trip and I have to tell you, Tuesday, 9/9 was the longest day of my life.
The weather was great to drive, no rain, no wind, clear skies. So, we got up early, loaded up the truck and moved to Colorado.. Springs that is.. Pike’s Peak, lots of skiing, blue skies.
I’ve never been to Iowa and never been to Nebraska and you don’t really realize how big of a country we live in until you drive through some of these states.
