Day 9 - Colorado Springs, CO

Last day in The Springs and not much to report. Started with a continental breakfast, did a little car packing and then found our way to a nearby Starbucks.

Not having anything to do until 12:30, we took a drive out East toward the airport and got into a road paving traffic jam. Finally made our way over to the Broadmoor Hotel. Built in the early 20th century, it was known as the "Grand Dame of the Rockies" and evolved into a 5-star/5-diamond luxury hotel. When there have a "yard of ale" at the Golden Bee English Pub.

Best part of the day was meeting Marla at Old Chicago for pizza, beer and catching up on several years of news. After lunch I tried looking up old friend, but he wasn't home. Steve, if you found the card I left and make your way here - Hi, sorry I missed you.

After another short drive and a stop for gas we are back at the motel. With a 440 mile drive tomorrow we will try to be on the road (or at Starbucks) by about 7:00.
