Colorado Springs - August 22-24

We had a wonderful time in Colorado Springs getting to see my uncle Mike and our friend Mark. We got to Mike's on Friday (the 22nd), where he fed us delicious pasta with sausage and we got much-needed showers. Then Mike gave us and Mark a tour of his lab at the Airforce Academy. It was awesome, and I'm so happy to have finally gotten to see it.


(on the way to Mike's house in his neighborhood - not a bad view, eh?)

The next morning Mike made us espresso and cappuccino and we met Mark at Garden of the Gods (Falling Rock, I believe, of which is pictured below).



Then we had lunch with Mark and walked around Colorado College where he works - cool beans and also a great view from there!

That evening, Mike took us to Wilkerson's Pass where we took in the awesome scenery, walked around, and chatted. Twas much fun!











Thanks for a great weekend Uncle Mike!
