Will Rogers was quite a guy. He was very popular in his day and time. Born in Oologah, Oklahoma on November the fourth 1879.

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.

Colorado Zoo – Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

Gallery

This gallery contains 1 photo.

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
