As I sit here .............

As I sit here in my studio of our new house at an elevation of 8,296 ft. looking out the window at Pike's Peak it suddenly occurs to me that this place is not only beautiful but it may be the proverbial paradise on Earth. Mountains, forests and lakes all over the place, Army and Air Force bases bigger than Colorado Springs at stone's throw, and NORAD and Air Force Academy to boot. 100 miles from Denver. There are only handful of people living here. 7,000 or so. This place must be a well kept secret. How lucky can one get? Way to go!
