Day 23 - Heading Home

After a glorious long weekend away from home, today is our heading home day.  The long drive that awaits us will be broken in half with one more stop to see the natural beauty from our home state.  I will finish this post when we finally make it home and add pictures of our break in the day.

As promised, here is the final for the day.  Started off in Colorado Springs with a yummy breakfast with a great waitress.  After that, on the road we went.  We made a few stops, shopping a bit for souvenirs, then off to our mid-day stop which ended up being a little later than mid-day.  Oops.  Guess that happens when shopping takes a bit longer than expected.

We finally made it to Monument Rocks in Oakley, KS.  Talk about spectacular. It doesn't hold a candle to Garden of the Gods, however, for the flats of Kansas, this is pretty impressive.

While the drive was exhaustively long. it was an amazing trip.  There is something so relaxing about being with someone special to you and seeing things of such beauty.  I feel so blessed!
