What exactly is a vacation?
Deb & I somehow found ourselves completely sans-children on Sunday morning, each of them occupied with other activities outside the house. In spite of the oppressive heat and threat of rain that has characterized the past several weeks, we took the opportunity to get out exploring.
One of our most favorite nearby places is North Cheyenne Canyon, so we decided to check out one of the trails we hadn't yet been on, Mt. Cutler. Only a three mile out-and-back, but you climb about 700 feet to the top of a ridge with the most amazing view of the canyon and the entire city. The weather really cooperated too -- it was hot up at the top, but most of the trail winds through the trees nicely.
With time left to kill, we had a really great lunch at PJ's Bistro in Manitou Springs: my highest recommendations.
