    What a beautiful view to have on somewhat of a regular basis. Very cool!
    We have the White Mts. in New Hampshire and the Green Mts. in Vermont which I get to see every so often on somewhat of a non-regular basis.
    Thanks for sharing!

    Very nice. I lived with a friend in Manitou Springs and turned into an extended stay for about six months. Very nice area. I felt like I was living at the foot of Pike's Peak which I pretty much was.

    Yep. I like to say i live in the shade.of.pikes peak. While living in Manitou did you ever go up the incline? The wood steps that go straight up the mountain? Ive never done it myself. Too much work for me.
