Happy Mother’s Day!

May 11, 2025

We’ve had a wonderful time here in Colorado Springs. Dawn, Vic’s daughter, has been with us most of the time. Zoe thinks Dawn is part of her “pack”. We’ve had several fires, met some great people who will remain friends. We even made a friend out of the RV repair guy Richard who came out and worked on our hydraulics. Richard might come out and camp with us at Yellowstone. He told us about Crystal Park Cantina, an amazing Mexican restaurant in an out of the way place. We had the best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted.

We’ve played lots of card games.

We watched the Kentucky Derby. I made hot pastrami sandwiches with homemade coleslaw and Russian dressing. They were scrumptious!

Our neighbors James and Olivia, a young couple with a 6 month old baby girl (Riley) plan to meet up with us at Yellowstone too.

We had several inches of snow – beautiful to watch it come down in big fat flakes. Then it melted two days later – perfect. we just wanted to see it, not deal with it really lol.

We love this area, I’m sure we’ll be back at some point.

I do have some pictures to share and here they are.

He has spots along the side which don’t show in these photos.

Loads of deer in this area, they stroll through the campground early mornings.

This is our last post from Ft. Carson, Colorado Springs, CO. We are leaving on Monday and heading to Yellowstone.

Stay safe everyone ❤️
