We had an amazing time this weekend! Tasha, her parents, and I all went up to Canon City, Colorado for the weekend. We, literally, woke up Saturday morning, drove up there, stayed the night, and drove back Sunday evening. It was short, but it was a blast. Royal Gorge is beautiful, and there were so many things to see in such a small town.
The highlight of my weekend was riding the Sky Coaster. It’s basically a huge swing suspended on the edge of one of the canyon walls. It drops you in a freefall and swings you out over the gorge which is over 1,000 ft. deep. It was terrifying, but I will never forget it. Live for the moment, right?
Tasha wasn’t too happy about it…
She's not a big fan of heights.
We also went to a prison museum. We had no idea it was there until we came up on it, all of the sudden, when we were trying to find our hotel. It was really cool! It has a very long and interesting history.
We then went to the prison’s graveyard on Woodpecker Hill.
We also managed to squeeze in a trip to a winery, an old catholic abbey, a dinosaur museum, and a strange store FULL of dead animals. It was a great weekend spent with great people! I can’t wait to see more of Colorado! All the pictures are courtesy of Natasha and Megan!
Oh… and Tasha fought a Roman…
