The Craftwood Inn

A detail of the front of the beautiful Craftwood Inn, located in Manitou Springs.  Normally I'm at the Craftwood to shoot a wedding, but on Thursday evening I was there to cover a high school graduation party.  This particular student was graduating from the Fountain Valley School, a private prep boarding school just east and south of Colorado Springs, and his closest loved ones came from far and wide to celebrate with him at the Craftwood.  It was a great group of people!

I've always thought of the Craftwood Inn as a great place for carnivores because they're known for serving exotic game such as bison, antelope and the like.  But I've just learned that their chef is (ironically) a vegetarian, so they have wonderful vegetarian entrées every day of the week as well.  The next time Pat and I have a special occasion I'll be suggesting the Craftwood :^)
