A Hip Day in the Springs

A wonderful weekend in Colorado Springs with my beauty.

Jillian and I have a "Book of Epic Adventures" with a list of a fun things for us to do and places to document it. We knocked off the first one of the summer: go on an epic hipster date.

A quick road trip down I-25 brought us to the beautiful Garden of the gods and the fascinating Old Colorado City. We explored antique shops, photography joints, looked at Tibeten clothing, and hung in a trendy coffee shop (and I actually drank coffee). We also made a few oddball friends including a hippie in what can only be described as a hippie shop, and a long haired, bearded man who believes in magic and considers himself a wand expert. We ended our adventure in the Springs with my new favorite pastime, a round of disc golf. 

Is there anything better than summertime in Colorado?
