COLORADO SPRINGS!!!! 6-25-2017

Pulled into Golden Eagle Ranch Campground yesterday here in Colorado Springs. We will hang out here for a few days before we drive to Creede. Today we took a tour of the May Natural History Museum which is right here at the campground. It is the largest collection of bugs and insects in the world. Travis came over and visited with us and stayed for dinner. Today we had a little rain with multiple rainbows afterwards.  The Museum started as  a traveling show then planted at Weeki Washi in Florida.  Disney wanted to purchase it and it was not for sale so they moved to here.  It's irreplaceable but worth 4-6 million.

Some of the insects date back to 1907.  Walt Disney offered to buy the whole display but he would not use John Mays name,  Was a no go,  Irreplaceable but estimated to be worth 4-6 million!!!!


It was so nice to have one of my sons here and to fish with him.,...even tho we didn't catch anything!!
