Fascinating Travel Blog - Colorado

Hi all

My Auntie emigrated to the States in the 60s after marrying an American soldier. She went on to have six children who have children and grandchildren of their own now so as you can imagine i have a large family over there.

Many of them live in the Colorado/Springs region and I have been fortunate enough to meet a lot of my family twice now.

My auntie is in her eighties and I remember when I last saw her back in 2014 I looked at her as I said goodbye and thought to myself "I am never going to see this woman again" We both cried but she is still with us so I pray that I can go one more time before anything happens to her as she isn;t in good health.

One of my cousins was married to a pastor, he was called Sonny and Sonny was the most peaceful man I have ever met in my life and sadly Sonny died in his 40s.

My cousin went on to marry another lovely man Greg and they have had many travels together. They are hoping to retire in the next couple of years and she has started a blog about her and Gregs travels, I just wondered if anyone here would be intested in reading and seeing her pictures.

It is a wonderful, historic read so I wanted to share with you.

I am sure you will enjoy your read.

Brilliant, Lion Queen, thank you for sharing. Takes a while to load - but worth the wait. Stunning photographs - that Royal Gorge Bridge looks a bit scary!
