Didn’t post yesterday (Friday) as all we did was golf 18 holes at the Eisenhower Golf Club. It’s on the grounds of the AF Academy and is a beautiful course. It was a little cool and mostly cloudy but the sun peaked out every once and a while. As for how well we played (or not), there’s no need to discuss it on a public blog. Let’s just say we played better on the back 9 than we did on the front nine.
This morning we had a nice anniversary breakfast with mimosas. We’ve been dragging around a bottle of Martini and Rossi Asti (one of my favs) since we left home so we’re glad to finally crack it open. I can’t believe we’ve been married for 6 years already. Time really does fly. We’re going out for a nice dinner tonight at the Cliff House Restaurant. We planned to spend the night there as well but decided we didn’t want to pack everything up again so we’re staying in our flat for our last night in Colorado Springs.
After a quiet morning we walked to Old Colorado City which is only 1/2 mile from the flat. It’s the historic part of town, only a few blocks long, filled with shops and restaurants. Our favorite part though was the Saturday farmer’s market. There were tons of tents in the corner park and, since the weather is beautiful (75 and sunny) it was pretty crowded.
Not much happening this afternoon. We’re heading Walmart/Target to buy bubble wrap. We found a very large Mexican art market where we bought a few things for the house. One piece is a bit big so we want to wrap it in bubble so it doesn’t get destroyed in the back of the car as we continue our travels. Other than dinner tonight, not much else going on today. It’s nice to have a relaxing day where we can just sit on our back porch and enjoy the beautiful day. Talk soon.
