Pikes Peak from above

Got back from California late afternoon and a familiar site says I'm just about home. There's still thousands of pounds of gold pulled outta of the base of that mountain today, but no longer by those with just a dream, as it was in 1860. It's all big business today.

I road up to the top on the cog railroad in around 1984 I'm thinking it was. I'm planning to take the grandson for a ride on that train this summer. It beats driving your vehicle up to the top. The veiw from up there is definitely a sight to see.
