Melissa and the girls have been to town several times and we had never taken them to Garden of the Gods! Blasphemy, I know. We decided to spend the whole day down in the Springs. We spent the morning hiking Garden of the Gods, where we also had a picnic lunch, then we drove to Manitou Springs and visited the cliff dwellings, and then walked around tasting all of the different natural spring waters. We ended the day with dinner at The Mason Jar.
There are a MILLION pictures- but, seriously, with the scenery around us- how could I not take a bajillion???

| Nobody really cared much for the spring water. |

| But the kids did enjoy the penny rides. |

We had the stroller to carry our water bottles.
After 18,000 steps, we were exhausted and ready for a delicious dinner! |

What an awesome place! It reminds me of Moab.
You need to come visit and we will take you to it! It is really beautiful,and very similar to Moab- the red rocks are stunning.
oh my old stomping grounds! we lived next door to GOTG so I grew up exploring it. Also, next time, Boriello brothers pizza is perfect for dinner with kids, and giant slide in the restaurant!
I was thinking of you while we were down there, Jenny!
We are totally trying that pizza place- a slide in the restaurant? I am sold!
