I've visited many locations over the years, but Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, CO is still my favorite place on earth. The beautiful red rock formations, serene mountain side landscape, and abundance of wildlife make this a must visit destination.
I was actually quite surprised by the gorgeous landscape of Caprock Canyons State Park on the southern edge of the Texas panhandle. It's the third largest state park in Texas and has several hiking, biking, and equestrian trails. It's also home to the official bison herd of Texas! #texas #caprockcanyons #hiking #roadtrip

Great apartment style hotel! The staff was friendly, check in was easy, the room was clean and spacious. The only downside was apparently all 3 hot tubs were not functioning 🤔 and one of the reasons we picked this place was because they had a hot tub.
