What is your favorite spot in Colorado Springs?

We have so many favorite getaways in Colorado Springs. One of my favorites is the Mt. Cutler trail in Cheyenne Canon Park. It's only 1 mile up and if you know exactly where to climb, you can climb the rocks and end up overlooking all of the city. Makes for a nice spot to have a picnic and maybe some chocolate covered strawberries.

Another favorite is in Red Rocks Canyon. When you are hiking in the Red Rocks area, it feels like you are far away from civilization even though you're right in the city. The views are amazing. I've spotted deer, snakes, foxes, and coyotes there in broad day light.

What's your favorite spot?

Wine tour soon to come

Went to Woodland Park, the City in the clouds, to see what we could do with wine tasting for our Discovery Tours' Colorado Wine tour. Met Ben, the owner of Charitable Treasures. What a nice guy! That shop is incredible. If you need to find a gift for someone, they have it. And ...they have Colorado wine tasting! Ben is willing work Discovery Tours into a deal. Whoo hoo -- keep checking out website, http://www.discoverytourscolorado.com/ for when the tour becomes available and sign up!
