COLORADOGUY FESTIVAL: Saturday Afternoon & Evening Photos!
(Pikes Peak Highway, Dinner, Manitou Arcade, "Story of the Golden Goats Milk") September 4, 2004
 |
After breakfast, some of drove up the
Pikes Peak Highway in the afternoon. Uh, now is a good time to say that
ideally, I believe in hiking up 14ers, but since there were
lots of out-of-state visitors, we opted for the more expedient route. :) |
 |
Well, the weather was pretty bad, with snow & sleet coming down, and we were ordered to turn around near the top. Sheeeesh! TOP LEFT: Sarah (TVI), Nick and Lars. (Sarah was pretty cold!) TOP RIGHT: Sarah's Mom and younger brother came too! :) BOTTOM: Bernie ran out to photograph a snow-covered plant. |
 |
As we were coming down, the weather improved. We pulled over at this spot and the bottom photo is a view to the north. |
Dinner at the Stagecoach Inn in Manitou Springs
| A really special dinner with some good friends! Cheers! (Nick proclaimed, "Long live the queen" and I declared, "May God bless my forums and chat room!" ;) |
 |
| Just look at the yummy food! I highly recommend the Stagecoach Inn. The ambiance is classy, the food is delicious and the servers are top quality.
All that but without the super high prices of other well-regarded Manitou restaurants. (Photo: Kansas Kelly, Myself, Lars, Bernie, Sarah (TVI) and Nick) |
 |
Fun at the Manitou Arcade
 |
Afterwards we walked over to the Manitou Arcade.
Look! Nick is playing Centipede! :) |
 |
I had my best game of Asteroids ever! 25,710 points baby! (Photo for proof!) Ahem ... Have you ever seen my Ms. Pac Man article? :) |
 |
Sarah and Kansas Kelly play some kind of shooting game. |
 |
Air hockey! |
 |
Bernie plays Joust. |
| Nick plays Donkey Kong. Yeeeehaw! |
 |
Then we played horse racing! Just look at my amazing form in the top right photo! :) |
 |
Sarah grins at the camera! I must say, this pictorial is almost as nice as the Roadtrip to Aspen two days before. |
 |
Oh! I won a horse race with over ten people,
which meant I won this Manitou Arcade plastic mug as a prize. I was so stinkin' happy! :) |
 |
Bernie plays skeeball! |
 |
We won a whole bunch of tickets, and Kelly and Sarah traded some in for those plastic pink figures. |
 |
Ha! Look what Bernie did what a business card and those plastic figures! (We left it there for some lucky pedestrian to notice and keep!) ;) |
The Telling of: "The Story of the Golden Goats Milk"
| Last but not least, I told "The Story of the Golden Goats Milk" to friends. Ha ha ha! I didn't take any of those pictures, and it's a pity that photos were taken of others' reactions to the story! Oh! Click here to read what Bernie said on my forums as I was telling the story! :) |
