Gibson Family Adventures

During our excursion down to cousin Joey's graduation we decided to stay for a weekend down in Colorado Springs (it was just 30 min further south).  We got a great rate with one of my crew hotels and as you can see above the pool and free breakfast were a hit!!  We don't get breakfast in bed like that at home!!  Somewhere I have a video of Riley jumping on the bed.  Our rule is NO JUMPING ON THE BED at home...but at a hotel...JUMP ALL YOU LIKE!!
Riley, I and Maesyn had a great time in the pool and Dan had a good time sitting on the side of the pool.  Can you tell he's from a land-locked state???  Along the way there was a buffalo farm, so of course we had to stop and take some pictures with them!  They are so big!!
We also stopped at Castlewood Canyon State Park.  The rocks there are very unique.  There were a bunch of trails, so we took a hike around one of the shorter ones with the girls.  Check out that twisted tree from the wind.  Reminds me of the wind blown trees you see on the coast.  We had a great time walking around and Riley even picked you some flowers!  Next time we'll bring a picnic as there were a lot of tables and grills perfect for picnics!  Maybe you will come join us?

I wonder what that area looks like now. Did the forest fires get that far?
