Pikes Peak Region Tour

Today, I started at 7:00 A.M. this morning to meet the sightseeing company at Union Station for the Pikes Peak Region Tour. The tour was really educational and I especially enjoyed looking over the mountain and over the land and be in awe of the wonderful creation. Below are tour details and photos, enjoy.
