The Excitement of the MLB All-Star Game

We are approaching the middle of July, halfway through summer — it’s sad summer is going so fast, but this means we have the MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday, July 12. This one will be even more exciting because, due to the COVID-shortened season, there was no Mid-Summer Classic last year. The game will take place at Coors Field in Colorado, which always makes for a fun game because balls fly out of this stadium. I have always thought the MLB All-Star Game is the most entertaining and most watchable because, unlike other sports, it actually means something. The league that wins gets homefield advantage in the World Series in the fall.

The Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway

I have a close friend who resides in Colorado Springs, Colorado, so I’ve been fortunate to visit the scenically gorgeous area of Colorado several times.

While I’ve seen Pikes Peak and have stayed at The Broadmoor, I’ve never had the chance to experience The Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway. When I got a press release recently that the historic railway is prepping to reopen following a $100 million renovation (in process since October 2017), I immediately added it to my list for my next visit to Colorado Springs.
