South of Denver and in the foothills of Pikes Peak there is an amazing park with some very strange but beautiful rock formations. This place is named The garden of the Gods. The area is owned by the city of Colorado Springs and is open to all for free. If you are into photography your best time to visit is late afternoon. If you want to just view the formations, any time of the day is good.. If time permits, park your car and walk some of the paths that take you right to the base of some of these structures. Early morning is best for this activity as the park is still pretty free of tourists. As you travel near these wonderful reminders of past upheavals. I am reminded of a saying that Rob Nevin uses."Shhhh" and enjoy the stillness of this place
