Scrapbook Stationery Backgrounds

Hi Scrapbook and Stationery Friends,
Kathy and I took our two oldest granddaughters to the Rock Ledge Ranch Historic Site in Colorado Springs last night for an outdoors musical theater drama presentation.
Legend and Legacy (the 4 performing players) were absolutely wonderful and the scenery from the 1800s working ranch was spectacular. We didn’t get up to the old cabin home stead in the hills as we didn’t get there early enough to have time… but the main ranch and farm lands were beautiful. We’ll try and get back to see the rest soon… it was that good.
We took lots of digital photos while we wondered and waited for the performance to start. We just brought our lawn chairs and a picnic dinner and had a great time for FREE! While there is an admission charge to enter the museum and some displays, it was no cost at all to wonder the large several hundred acre ranch and enjoy the beautiful Colorado mountain sceanery.

If you are ever in the Colorado Springs area, you really need to check out this hidden treasure. It’s not very well publicized due to the small operating budget, but it’s very authentic, very well maintained and OHHHHHH so beautiful… especially in the spring and summer.
Allow several hours time to explore as there is quite a lot to see.
Here’s our granddaughters favorite view… Turtles on the Pond.
This was just a few hundred feet west from where the performance was held. It was a good size pond full of small feeder fish and had a couple of small turtles just hanging out on a floating log.
Makes for a great summer scrapbook background or digital stationery template.

All in all, we had a really wonderful time. The performances were very well done, quite entertaining and gave us some facts that we didn’t know after living here in the Pikes Peak region for more than 15 years now.
Kathy will be creating some new digital scrapbook templates and a couple more FREE stationery downloads in the next few days… she just needs to finish up with the lions, tigers and cougars photos we took at the Big Cat preserve just east of our house.
It’s amazing how many really cool things there are here in Colorado that we didn’t even know existed.
