Gods

The Garden of the Gods is the premier tourist attraction of Colorado Springs, looming up from the edge of the suburbs like a portal to an alien planet… with easy access to a Walmart. It features massive, flat, gently rounded monoliths that tilt up out of the earth as if thrown down by a mile-tall toddler. If the makers of Star Trek could have been bothered driving all of the way out to Colorado, they would have had great sets for various landing party adventures.


There are even great vantage points for filming moments of Great Peril!


It was in the Garden of the Gods that The Nerd encountered a mysterious figure of vaguely Far Eastern cast. Everyone needs a sensei.


The Nerd tried to consult with him, but he had an annoying habit of always appearing on higher ground. Points for inscrutable style, but not ideal for deep discussions on life and death.
