Flying W Ranch

After we toured the Air Force Academy we drove to Castle Rock and did some shopping at the huge outlet mall there. Then we went back to Colorado Springs and picked up Brandy and headed to dinner at the Flying W Ranch. My parents had done this on one of there other trips so my dad wanted us to all go while we were there. It is an old fashioned chuck wagon dinner. They also have a western/bluegrass show after you eat dinner. It was a lot of fun other then it was trying to come a storm while we were eating. So imagine trying to eat a chuck wagon dinner outside with the wind blowing like crazy! They did move us inside for the show so that was much better! We had a great time! The show was great and food was delicious!

Before the dinner we walked around the ranch. They had lots of shops and activities for the kids.They had Native American dancers there that were showing us some of there tribal dances.

OH MY GOODNESS!!! We use to go to the Flying W ranch ALL THE TIME!!! When we lived in Oklahoma, Dad's bf lived and worked at the Academy, so we went every summer. I loved this place!! One of the guys in the band (back then) went to church with dad's bf family. We had the records - yes, I said records - and everything! We had a storm one time when we were there, too!!! What great memories!
