Manitou Springs

Drew was done with work early and we decided to spend the day walking around the downtown area of Manitou Springs. I also found two yarn stores in Colorado Springs that absolutely needed to be checked out first. Both were really nice stores, The Knitting Kove was in a strip mall and was for yarn only. The second one was The Holly Berry in Old Colorado City and that store is for all needle crafts. There was a lot of yarn, but also embroidery, rug hooking, and anything that can be done with a needle and thread. I picked up some new projects (like I need any more!) and new crafts that I had not seen before. Drew and I had lunch in Old Colorado City and after walking around the town for a little while we went to Manitou Springs. There we walked around some more until we both had enough. After resting in the hotel for a while (after all, people our age need to rest in the afternoon :) ) we headed back out. We drove to downtown Colorado Springs, walked around some more and had dinner. Drew has to get up very early tomorrow morning to catch a flight back to Tampa. I am not sure where I'll go tomorrow morning, but I will leave Colorado Springs as well.
