Another night out in Colorado Springs - Rock Bottom - another iPad sketchette. Don't know who were playing baseball.
Joe's Crab Shack
Joe' Crab Shack Colorado Springs - from outside Stabucks/Barnes & Noble - waiting for our daughter to finish her voluntary work helping a youngster to improve her reading skills. iPad again.
Ruxton Canyon, Manitou Springs
Liked the way the modernish house hung over Ruxton Canyon between Manitou Springs and the Cog Railway up to Pikes Peak - out came my iPad and 2 minutes later.......... the attached:Arharn's Thai Restaurant
Tasty food at Arharn's Thai restaurant in Colorado Springs with my iPad on my lap instead of the pudding!
Manitou Springs Colorado
Another from beautiful Manitou. Managed to keep out of the blazing sun!Manitou Springs, Colorado
The owner of the building (Barker House) chatted to me as I was sketching outside a coffee shop. It's such a good way of meeting local people who can tell you about the history of the town. Not sure if he wants me to publicise what a gem Manitou is - so keep it quiet!
Denver back to Colorado Springs
Shed in "prairie" (flat grassland) between Denver and Colorado Springs near Castlewood Canyon.
Denver Starbucks
Returning to my Colorado trip. Denver Starbucks at the biggest REI store in the world (in my experience). Thanks Starbucks for providing us with coffee, awesome pumpkin muffins (with creamcheese) and WI-FI.

Rocky Mountain State Park
The journey continues. The scenery doesn't get any better than this. The yellow is aspen trees shimmering in the breeze -"aspenglow".
Kansas Moonrise?
Kansas or it might have been Nebraska. Amazing colours on the left. The small line of clouds grow larger, lightening in the distance but we are soon safely in Denver with our younger daughter Anna and her husband Chris.......... relief!! Air travel is such a miracle.
iPad sketch - first time using spray gun pen device - I think it gave a realistic effect.
USA - MidWest
I think we've crossed the Mississippi - iPad still keeping me amused
Philadelphia airport
Philly - safe landing after half an hour delay waiting for President Obama to clear the Airport. Out came my sketchpad, pen, watercolours and rather blotchy paper. It was good to be on solid ground again!
Atlantic fever 002
Some more iPad sketchettes from our Airbus 330 somewhere over the Atlantic
Atlantic fever
When you're half way across the Atlantic in a cramped seat it's marvellous what inspires you to sketch!
