Our 37th anniversary was celebrated with a trip to Colorado Springs where we stayed at the elegant Broadmoor. Yes, it was a splurge and a treat.
We had some expectations of what the property and its atmosphere must be like. Those expectations were reinforced by the research reading I finished before I left, Newport in the Rockies and Broadmoor Memories. I learned history of Court Pourtales, Julie and Spencer Penrose, and El Pomador Foundation. From its website I learned the business is currently organized as a sole proprietorship. This place earns its character from the dreams and visions of people for more than 100 years, and it is beloved.
Thanks for letting us be part of it for three nights.
