This picture was actually taken on Earth day at the Visitor Center of the Garden of Gods. From there you have a stunning view of Pikes Peak. The local Air Force Choire gave a performance there and it was really neat. The Air Force has a huge presences here in Colorado Springs. Besides the Air Force Academy, we have 3 Air Force Bases and the famous NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) here. It's said that their center is hidden inside one of the Mountains -Cheyenne Mountain...which I live right before. It's also said that, if there should ever be a 3rd World War Colorado Springs will be fore sure one of the first targets to be destroyed, for the above mentioned reasons. Yieks!
