Strange things at Target

I guess if you need to go fishing for whales, you'd need a lure this size. Or maybe giant squid. Either way, it seems out of place in Target... Especially in Colorado, a land locked state.

Stargate in Colorado Springs

This is one of the more recent additions to America the Beautiful park in downtown Colorado Springs. He you stand in the right spot, you can frame downtown. From the other side, you have a great view of Pike's Peak.

Classic: A view from a Starbucks

As I mentioned in a previous post, one of the best views from a Starbucks was in Edinburgh, Scotland. The Starbucks was on the Royal Mile and the view was of the castle. Very cool! Below is a picture from the Starbucks... taken after enjoying a mocha frappicino at the end of a long day of touring Edinburgh.

Time for a new look...

So, it's been a very long time since I changed the look and feel of the site. I decided to experiment... thoughts?

Eventually, I'd like to use some of my own photos for the header and background, but for now, I think I'll just try this one.

For those of you that check here from time to time, you can "follow" the blog by tagging it in your blogger account. I've also turned on "Adsense"... we'll see if it stays around or not. With the eclectic mix of posts, who knows what will get added to the page.

View from a Starbucks

Today is the first time I've been to the Starbucks at Academy and Woodmen and been inside. It has a pretty good view. This ranks up there on the list of Starbucks with a view... one of my favorites was in Edinburugh, Scotland... the view is pretty much of the castle. I'll see if I can find a picture and post it.

Clouds on the mountain

This was the view of Pike's Peak a few days ago. The clouds were rolling in just before a good storm.

things that are new : throwback

Pepsi just came out with a couple of "new" products. What's funny is that they are actually old style sodas. The first is "Pepsi cola throwback". It is Pepsi made with came sugar. The second is "Mountain Dew throwback". After trying the Pepsi, I'd say it is a big improvement. I'm not a fan of Pepsi, but he they keep this on the market, I'd be more likely to buy it. I give it an 8 out of 10.
