We went to Iowa for a Sunday drive and went to Pikes Peak. I've been to another Pikes Peak years ago and that one was in Colorado. This Pikes Peak and the Colorado Pikes Peak are named after the same fellow.
We had a really fun day getting out and seeing the countryside.
Well, I just learned something new. I didn't know there were two Pike's Peaks!

I had no idea there were two also. I've only been to the one in Colorado. Thanks for the interesting info. :)

A beautiful view for as far as the eyes can see. Didn't know about two Pike's Peaks either, Judy.
