6/6/08: America, the Beautiful

I know why Katherine Lee Bates wrote “America, the Beautiful.” We had the opportunity to see the same awe inspiring site she did when she wrote the famous song atop Pike’s Peak. We took the easy, yet beautiful route up the cog railway. Like her, we were in awe of God’s creation. To the west we saw peak after peak as far as the eye can see of the great Continental Divide and to the east we saw all the way to Kansas. What a site to behold!!
