Hi friends!

It is I, Alfie Ted, and I wanted to share with you about our recent trip to Colorado! 

We went to Colorado Springs to visit Boy’s dad who has been ill. It was a brief trip because it was all that we could manage. We left Friday, stayed Saturday and Sunday, then drove home on Monday. Girl only takes one or two of us out of the house at a time… But this time it was all hands on deck! It was me (Alfie), Ralphie, Peanut, Max, and Hoodie Bear… But we later discovered that our hugmate from Victory in the Valley had smuggled himself into the suitcase!! 

We stayed at a hotel that sort of sounds like a cult. It’s called Soul Community Planet. It was decent except that on Sunday they didn’t have AC or running water!!

They had painted rocks around the campus.

We also discovered that compared to where we live, in Kansas, Colorado leaves A LOT to be desired in the convenience store category!! We went to multiple gas stations hoping to find one of our favorite sodas, but we struck out several times.

On Sunday, we went to the Garden of the Gods. It’s an amazing park with free admission. It’s huge and the views are phenomenal. 

Here are some photos we took. The fountain with the painted rocks was our hotel. The other mountain photos are from Garden of the Gods.. 

The two photos with Colorado signs are from the Colorado Visitors Center. The absence of a picture with the genuine Colorado sign left us delighted to locate the ones shown. 

It’s been a while since we took a trip, and it’s been ages since we went to Colorado. So this was a much-needed trip. 

Big hugs!

Alfie Ted
