Our new home



We searched today until we found our camera. I thought I would take a few minutes to introduce you to our new home.

We are located on the West side of Colorado Springs, not very far from where we lived many years ago when Larry, Jeanette, Arlo, Craig, Brian, and Anita stayed with us for a while while moving from Texas to the Denver Area.

We have really enjoyed the west side of Colorado Springs. It's slower paced that the newer part of the city. We find it friendly and are happy to be living here.


In front of the house, there is a flower garden. A neighbor helped me determine which plants are flowers and which are weeds. We now have a lot of work to do to get the weeds out so the flowers can flourish. I especially love the different varieties of mint plants in the garden.



Pete, Betty's Dad, really enjoys our back yard because it faces away from the busy street and has a beautiful view of Pike's Pleak.

This house has the only garage that I've ever seen that has both a front and a rear door. We just need to clean the junk out so that we can use it for a garage.

We have lots of pets. There are birds everywhere. They are really good at painting the cars that park in the driveway. We also have lots of ants and bugs.
