COLORADO SPRINGS POSTCARD


Colorado Springs was my second home for living, and there were some things that we´ll remember for ever, let me share with you a few...

Josh & John´s Ice Cream. ¿Why with a snake? I don´t have any idea! and I hate snakes, but our crush was the Mocha Java Colocate Ice cream, with chunks of coffee beans covered with chocolate. Is delicious, but be careful if you are sensitive to caffeine...sometimes my heart was in a race!

Snowflakes. Snows a lot, and you can see the shapes of the snowflakes.

Deers. It´s common to see deers on the streets near to the mountains, but one day we say one on our backyard! was so weird.

Dandelions. Dandelions are everywhere but Javier likes a special moment when he was driving and the streets was full of dandelions seeds floating all around.

Beer. That´s a lot of breweries, with crafty beer. (Javier is kind of fan, I don´t like it so much)

Petunias. We were full of Petunias, is our type of flower because is super easy to cultivate and with a single flower you can make it grow a bunch.

Garden of the Gods. One of the most visited places, we really enjoyed our time walking on the park and taking photos, there was my first star trail session, and I have a lot of photos in GOG.

Kiowa house. A.K.A Doll house, Cookie House, I´ll remember the first time on that house, super small but super cute, was very crunchy and so cozy, ¡our first home!

Pines (Woods) Our favorite places was Helen Hunt, we loved to spend the noon walking through the pines and looking the cascade, spending my bday with pizza or eating hamburgers in the snow with our frozen hands.

Med Cafe. The best mediterranean food! the gyros was my fav.

Lichos. Lichos is a word that we invented because our ex house holder name is Elesia, but we adapted the name to spanish "Licha", and she loves gardening and every day she was cleaning and taking care of the plants. She and her husband are very good people.  They will be remember with lot of gratitude.

Pizza. The best wood oven pizza was from Il Vicino!

Hand. The hands belongs to Valerntina, and definitely a big part of our Colorado story is what it is because of her. She born in Colorado Springs, so you can imagine all the things we pass alone with our first child, in a new place, a new life, away from family, with nobody who help. I just can say ¡OMG!

Balloons. The Hot air Balloon Festival, a cool event that we enjoyed with a lot of colorful balloons, during day and night.

Rabbit. We just to have a pet, well it was not ours but the rabbit lives (probably yet) under the house.

Bone. Represents the Mc Kenzie´s. Annie our ex neighbor and a good friend has two labrador dogs, super big! and Valentina loves Riley and Mc Kenzie.

Sunflower. It was the first flower that we sow.
