Pike's Peak, CO

On the morning of September 15, I took my trusty car up the menacing slopes of Pike's Peak. After driving over washboarded gravel roads for part of the way, I realized that the shocks in my car are completely shot. I blame the crappy highways in Massachusetts.

Here's a view of the summit from halfway up.

The top of Pike's Peak was muddy and chock full of tourists, but the views were still majestic.

Here's the proof that I was actually there, and didn't just download these images off of the Internet.
