Day Twenty-Three

The Mollie Kathleen Golden Mine in Cripple Creek. This was an awesome experience going more than 300 meters underground. The golden nugget that I'm holding in one of the pictures costs $4200.

Cripple Creek is also full of casinos so I got to gamble a little bit.

In the evening, dinner at the Flying W Ranch in Colorado Springs.

Day Twenty-Two

Back in Colorado Springs I did Pikes Peak. This place is the top of the world - more than 4000 meters in altitude. There is so little oxygen up there that I got dizzy. I also got to practice some russian up there.

In the evening, Colorado Springs downtown and the Broadmoor hotel.

Day Twenty-One

From Boulder I and Stefan went to Vail where Stefan had an appointment with Dr. Steadman who did his meniscus surgery. I might be back in Vail in 6 to 8 months to have Dr. Steadman do my knee surgery. The pictures are from Vail and the dirt roads on the way to Vail.

Day Twenty

Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs and in the evening Boulder ...
