Fort Collins, Colorado is a town full of character, as you can see in the photos. About a 80 minute drive from Denver and 80 miles an hour. Wee… Excitement on the High Plains this week ( that is not a Colorado cannibus high). The photo’s here are only a small representation of what you will find in Fort Collins. However, take a look and enjoy the trip through downtown. Continue reading

Will Rogers was quite a guy. He was very popular in his day and time. Born in Oologah, Oklahoma on November the fourth 1879. Unfortunately his life was cut short by a plane crash in Point Barrow, Alaska, on August the fifteenth 1935. Here are more detailed facts and a video if you would like to learn more. As you progress upward you will come to a door that leads you out to an open-air viewing platform. By now you must hate it. More fresh air and view’s to die for. Enjoy and venture up to the top and back outside to another larger viewing platform. Spend as much time as you like. If there are no other people around, you can just help yourself to the serenity of the moment. Continue reading

“Mountain Peaks – The Summit – Why”
There are so many reasons why?
To most it makes no sense. Or at least no common sense.
And the summit?
You will have to make the journey yourself. Continue reading

Colorado Zoo – Cheyenne Mountain Zoo – Colorado Springs, It still has the warm, casual, family friendly character it has always had. It is just better now. Matter of fact, you can take your lunch with you and enjoy it at one of the shaded picnic eating areas. Don’t forget to take your water bottles, a hat, sunglasses, sun screen and your most comfortable pair of walking shoes. The panorama goes all the way from just below Monument to the north, then sweeps across Colorado Springs to the south side of town near Fort Carson. To the east is the wide open high plains. Now I ask you; How can you beat that? A zoo with a view. Nice… I highly recommend this as a part of your Colorado Bucket list. It doesn’t matter if you are from Colorado or just visiting from another state or country. Continue reading

I HOPE YOU FIND IT INTERESTING AND ENJOYABLE AS WELL. WE ARE TRAVELING TO SOUTHEAST CHINA TO TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT IS CALLED “FUJIAN TULOU.” It is essentially an ancient Chinese version of an apartment dwelling that is derived from the essential need of a family unit, and the idea that 2 person’s or more are better for protection.

Don’t ask me which it is. I don’t know. What I do know is that all of this involves two people and two families, and a whole nation.My heart cries in pain no matter who I think of or what I think of when I see this topic anywhere. And I confess, I have stayed away from it just for those reasons. What I do know is that the state of social well being in this country is of concern to many people these day’s. Political Correctness has now gone way too far. You can not find the truth in a search engine, you can not find truth on CNBC, you can not find truth on FOX News, even blogging is a far cry from the truth. We can not tell the truth from propaganda in any form, let alone chose between the truth’s that are forced at us by biased media and politics. The truth does exist and it is an absolute truth. All of this hurts even more by the ugly presence of Hate, Fear, Anger, Revenge and the lack of LOVE! Continue reading

The Fourever Fab – It was a great presentation musically and the stage performance with costumes really topped it off. From vintage style instruments to those crazy haircuts, it all fit together. John, Paul, George, and Ringo, The Beatles; I finally was able to see them perform. As close as I will ever get. If you were fortunate enough to see them live in the 60’s with all of the hysteria, it must have been an unforgettable experience. And if you did not see The Beatles, then you can catch up by going to see “The Fourever Fab” when they are in your vicinity. Continue reading
Daniels Park Colorado is in the southern most part of Denver and sits high above most other places, the photo’s in this post just capture the view from the west side of the park looking at the nearby foothills to the west and south. You can see Pikes Peak in several of these shots. It is the pointed peak in the background sticking out above the horizon line of the Rocky Mountain Range. Continue reading
