The Futorans came and visited us on their million and three mile journey across America. Not ones to let a trip to a Welcome Center or Gift Shop pass them respectively by, Mr. Futoran took Tim and Kelly (and Anna and myself for good measure) up Pikes Peak and then to USAFA. We ran out of time for a trip to Focus on the Family, but assured Tim that Whit's End is something of a disappointment, especially for longtime listeners of Adventures in Odyssey.
As usual, it was cold at the top, but this time, it was snowing. Kelly had already made a break for the gift shop. We would momentarily follow.
Since he didn't have time to hike the whole trail, Tim posed by the trail's end sign instead. He was going for the "I've just hiked 13 miles up a 6,000 ft increase in elevation grade and am about ready to die" look. I think he succeeded.
The inside of the USAFA chapel, Protestant section:
The USAFA chapel organ: the stained glass diffuses the light inside.
Tim and the chapel, front view. Anna claims that the USAFA chapel was designed by the same architect who did Covenant's chapel. She might be basing that conclusion on the fact that both roofs leak. Any other opinions out there?
