Song: Rocket Man
Artist: Elton John
This song just matched my lightheartedness of today...
especially after having eaten my meal...
and enjoying the fun loving woman at The Caffeinated Cow.
-------
At about noon...
I took my sister to Peak View for their live performance day...
and for her to enjoy a meal there.
Just before arriving at Peak View restaurant in Woodland Park.
The performer.
The guitarist played softly as we ate.
We had BBQ Brisket Spring Rolls as a starter.
I then got the Cajon Seafood Boil for us to share.
We finished off the remainder on our second plateful.
I was so glad I tried this dish.
The spices were so tasty...
and I enjoyed everything on the platter.
I will take my elder sister and her husband there once they arrive.
The meal was so satisfying.
I am so glad we have Cajon seafood right in Woodland Park.
Whenever I feel like Cajon food...
I know just where to go in the future.
So...so good.
We then attempted to go to an art fair at Garden of the Gods.
However...
once we arrived...
they weren't allowing any more people in due to lightning in the area.
The winds were picking up...
and it had started to rain.
So...
we left for a specialty coffee and dessert place in town.
When I had first seen this listed as a possibility...
I knew it would be a fun place to go.
The name was just so unique.
The whole of the shop was a Mom and Pop store...
and once in...
I had seen that it was a family run operation.
They had stuck to the theme of cows throughout...
and even more fun was the Mom.
She had stayed in character...
for when she received a tip...
she rang a cow bell...
and then mooed! :)
I could tell this woman loved what she did...
and that she poured her creative talent and passion into her establishment.
I love to see this...
the mount of pride she took in her shop.
I especially loved her moos...
she was just so funny.
She just belted them out without hesitation or embarrassment...
Her playfulness was only matched by her friendliness and warm and genuine smile.
She was just a fun loving woman...
and it was her personality that...
I believe...
had drawn in her customers...
besides having outrageously good Ice Cream and Coffee.
My sister and I had a good time there...
as it was such a fun atmosphere.
The above pictures were in the bathroom.
On the way home...
I laughed periodically as I kept remembering her face as she mooed.
As we neared home...
the skies began to clear until...
...the skies became beautiful once again.
------------
The sad news is that my sister's number one property choice had gone into contract
with someone else this morning.
It was the perfect home for my sister...
but...
there are other possibles for her to see tomorrow.
