I wanna be there. Oh well.
Is that restaurant down at the old CS train station still there? Boy was that good.
How about taking in one of the old western barbecue shows on the Flying W? Gosh, we used to love that. Don't miss Garden of the Gods. Pikes Peak was great as was the Cheyenne Mtn. Zoo and Air Force Academy and the outlet mall.
Missed the quilt shops when I lived there as I did not quilt then.
Too bad you can't go up to Aurora and go the Great American Quilt Factory.
Oh gosh, I 'm so envious. Have fun all and think of me. (Yeah right!)
Are you talking about Guiseppie's? Oh YES, it is still there!! Mighty awesome food!! Here's their link:

Can't get the URL to open. Drat. Gotta check that place out when I get there.
I've been to the places you mention plus so many more. There is so much to do there and so much history. We hit the outlet mall everytime if you're referring to the one between Denver and the Springs. Been to the Zoo twice - once in the summer and once in the winter. The church at the Academy is a "must" for anyone who goes to the Springs plus the main center. Went to the top of Pike's Peak. I took the train but my daughter and her son have climbed it. Phew - the elevation. My daughter lives at around 7,000 feet and I've finally gotten used to it.
WOO HOO - one week and I'll be there. So looking forward to the 16th and meeting everyone. Flying directly into the Springs this time.
