1,000 Feet of Ahhhhhh's

So I won tickets on My 99.9 radio to go to the Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, and also bought some a year ago to show my daughter's friend back in Massachusetts, but she ended up leaving Colorado 3 days too early.

I had a total of 8 Tickets, gave 5 to my sister and 2 to my friends Holly and Ron. My folks also had 2, and Holly and Ron had 2 from earlier... That's uh... 8 - 5 - 2......and another 2, + 2....... = uh, well.... too Many!!!!

2 days and no heat wave, we decided that.... 
My folks, 4 friend's and I were going to Canon City (pronounced Canyon).
 

Here are the Park attractions.....

Incline R.R.
 Mom and I rode the Blue car down, kinda tight squeeze, 
and not a lot of viewing w/ tall people in front of you.
To the bottom here is where the Incline R.R. takes you....

It goes right across the 1,000' Gorge
Below is the Arkansas River and Royal Gorge Route R.R

Highest Suspension Bridge in the...World!
  Drive your car, walk, take a trolley, or golf cart across.
Ron and Holly on the Trolley.



There was a cute 1 mile long mini train ride outside the main gate, my mom, dad and I took a ride to kill 10 minutes...

They think they are funny w/ the "scenery"
