beer garden of the gods

(April, 2006. Garden of the Gods Park, Colorado.)

I thought we had agreed that there'd be No Hiking on this trip!? We cheated and hiked a bit at the Garden of the Gods Park. Very interesting rock formations. (The one my car was looking at is called Kissing Camels.) Re: name of park, apparently, one guy said "This would be a great place for a beer garden!" and another guy said, "This place is fit for the gods!" Thus --> (Beer) Garden of the Gods.

In Estes Park now, Eeeeka's dad Steve was so kind and took us on a tour of the Rocky Mountain National Park. More on that later!

Kitty -- Tired, I think we can both use more sleep, but trip is fun and going well. And re: name, I only got one vowel and one consonant in my name. So you're not that bad off. :P

Miss K and the Tse -- I got my SPF 50, as well as the Shu Uemura SPF 25 thing. I try to keep reapplying, since I burn so easily. :P Miss you too -- you hang in there, you jetsetting globe trotter you.

Garden of the Gods! Miss K & I stopped there years ago, and we too gazed upon the kissing camels. But I ask you this: are they really kissing, or locked in a battle to the death? Is the monkier just there to sugar-coat the face-to-face combat? YOU be the judge!

Miss J -- Yeah, I know! Just left Miss K's place yesterday, and she told me that you guys have been there.

And the answer of course, is ULTIMATE FINAL BATTLE! That'll last a MILLENIA!! Who will fall and who will be triumphant?? aaaaaarrrrrrrggghhhh...!!
