Garden of The Gods… and a Beetle.

We’re in Colorado!!

Specifically, Garden Springs!
And the weather is…. TERRIBLE!

But that’s okay… We’re still going to push through our plans to keep on schedule, and first up is the World’s Largest Beetle!!

Alright… I guess it is just a beetle on the side of the road, and it’s cold… so we’ll continue on.

Being literally the only ones in here, the friendly park volunteers chat with us and share that the balancing rock may have decent visibility.

That’s where we’re headed!!

Balancing Rock

The drive into the park looks pretty grim…
