We are all enjoying the monument about America the Beautiful. Katharine Lee Bates, an English Teacher from Wellesley College in Mass, came out to Colorado to lecture at Colorado College the summer of 1893. She and other teacher made the trip to Pikes Peak by wagon. She was so inspired by the view that she wrote the poem, America the Beautiful. The views from the peak were indeed inspiring.
