Eleven Mile State Park, CO

On September 14, I drove from Kansas to Eleven Mile State Park, a few miles west of Colorado Springs, CO. It was absolutely beautiful, and I was happy to be back in the mountains. After reaching my campsite, I noticed a thunderstorm brewing on the other side of the lake.

I watched and listened as the lightning and thunder drew closer and closer, but I held out hope that the storm would pass me by.

Nope.

After spending a fitful night attempting to sleep in my car, I woke up before sunrise and enjoyed the view.
