Day Seventeen

We found a small restaurant off base for breakfast called Sandy's.  It is a converted house and looked to be a favorite for the local folks.  The food was good and the portions big.  Golfer had a few things to take care of on his computer when we got back and I went to the Commissary for a few things.

Then we headed out for the Air Force Academy.  Went to the visitor's center and watched a film, and browsed through the gift shop.  Drove around and looked at the area. 

Then we stopped at Chic-Fil-A for lunch.  It was very modern and very customer friendly.  Food delivered to our table, several times we were asked if we needed anything else.  And an electronic trash can that opened up when you got to it!

The first evening we were here in the area we found our first apartment we lived in in Colorado.  It's still there, but we don't remember which unit we lived in.  :) We've driven all around here on base but have decided that where we lived here has been torn down.  There is a lot of construction going on and it is nice to see them putting solar panels on the roofs of the housing.

We are back in our suite for a bit until it is time for the rodeo.  It is thunder storming right now and I hope it stops before we leave.

This is Pike's Peak.  It has pretty much had clouds over it since we got here, but this morning on the way in to breakfast, we could almost see the very top!  Beautiful!

Stay Safe and God Bless America!
