Woke up to snow. We googled the weather and found there was
another “winter weather event” in progress in the Denver area. We had planned
to go to Colorado Springs, where there is a lot to do, and given we were not
overly stoked with the RV Park we were in, we decided to head out. Driving on
the interstate highway was interesting. Although the road was clear, there was
blowing snow meaning that we couldn’t see further than about 2 car lengths
ahead.
As we headed to Colorado Springs the snow got heavier until there was a
good coating of slush on the road. We were very pleased to get into Colorado Springs
after nearly 2 hours. We found a good RV Park, with good services and pulled
in. Although it was only lunchtime, there was no point trying to see any of the
local attractions. We had planned a cog railway trip to the top of Pike’s Peak
(14000ft), and a horse ride through the Garden of the Gods, but both those
activities were off the agenda. As the afternoon went on the snow got heavier
and we were glad to be indoors with the furnace running. We ducked out a couple
of times to get some pics and damn it was cold!
