America The Beautiful!

Happy Independence Day!  There are so many beautiful places in the USA.  Here’s one that inspired the poem that led to the song, “America The Beautiful”!

The view from the top of Pike's Peak!

    I love the view from Pike’s Peak! I did not know the America the Beautiful connection.
