La Veta is at least two and a half hours from Colorado Springs, I believe.

Ok off to start getting fabric read/y for my summer sale. Hope I sell a lot then I can buy a lot lol.

this is going to be so much fun.

Are you flying into Colorado Springs or Denver?

I'm flying into the Springs on the 12th. Hate to have the kids make that hour plus drive to pick me up in Denver and they are so close to the CS airport now. Everytime they pick me up in Denver we always have to stop at the Outlet Mall on the way back. Ouch - that always makes a dent in my fabric funds.

Oops - sorry, you were asking Grammo013.

I wonder where and when they tape the show. Would love to go see one.

I just sent them an email. Let's see if I get a response. Will share if I do.

coming into the springs. f I did come into Denver I would have rented a car as they work the hours I was coming in.

I will be in Colorado Springs. I would love to ride up with you and your daughter. This is going to be so much fun.

Yes I am starting a blanket group but I have a couple decisions to make before I can say which one. Will know real soon.

You're right. Garden of the Gods is beautiful. The church at the Air Force Academy is another 'must' to visit. Visited the Zoo - that was so much fun, a zoo in the mountain top. There are some quaint shops in Manitou Springs, a fun place to just walk and taste all the different waters. There is so much to do there and in the surrounding area.

I've been to Ruth's Stitchery and High Country Quilts. Great shops.

Would be fun if you could join us on the 16th.

I agree with you on the beautiful places to go and visit. I have a sister n law living in Florissant Co and what a wonderful visit we all had with her and family. Pikes Peak is a great venture as well. Sooooo many places ... Cripple Creek too!

Do you need a ride when you come into the Springs? I'll be there on the 12th. If you need a ride, LMK. I'll PM you my cell phone.

I lived in Florrisant when I lived out there a few years ago. And cripple creak is one of my favorite places lol.
