This Saturday's Theme is "Window"
Glass Eye House, Leadville, Colorado
Look at the window way above the front door on the roof. If you click on the picture you will see it better. If you see an eye, you're right!! This was one of the items to find on the MSR Scavanger Hunt. I did the research and found out it's in Leadville, CO and got general directions to find it, but boy was it hard to find. I must of passed this house at least 3 times!! My riding partner found it for me, thanks Debbie. This house is a famous landmark in Leadville.
I was here after having done the Colorado Springs Harley Davidson Pikes Peak HOG 5in1 Run this past summer. That was a blast. We did 5 mountain passes in one day and it ended near Leadville. Myself and a few other Mountain Shadow Riders spent the night in Leadville and then headed back home the next day. On this next day I had decided to find some scavanger hunt items that were in Leadville before heading home.
So this picture ended up being a "double" scavanger hunt photo. First for the Mountain Shadow Riders scavanger hunt and now for the Saturday's Scavanger Hunt. What fun!! In the end, I did two separate runs to Leadville for Scavanger Hunt items. But later I discovered there was still one more thing in Leadville and I never got a chance to go back and get it, sigh.
Thanks for visiting and I wish you many travel adventures in your part of the world,
Betty :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a good week end. Good picture you have!
Saw it! Just curious...why do you think did they put an eye there?
Happy weekend!
Stopping by from the Scavenger Hunt blogroll. I like the photo and your adventures sound fun. You should come to Rome and ride our streets! You're braver than I am!
That is a very interesting window! Must have been an adventure finding it.
Thanks for dropping by. Have a great weekend too!
Great picture! Kinda freaky too:)
Great photo! :) What an interesting-looking house!

Betty this is a great interpretation of the theme. And the story with it is fun too! Great share!
My windows are up! Happy Saturday!
Wow - what a great window!
That sounds like fun! I wonder what the story is behind the window. Reminds me of the Lemony Snicket stories.
Hello...blogger seem to have problem with comments post.
I like your photo, but not even sure if this comment will post. :)
That is so cool! What a fun trip that must have been. Perfect shot for this week's theme!
That is so awesome! I just love the look of old houses.
Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for stopping by.
That is a VERY strange window indeed. I don't know if I would like it in my house though, a bit creepy?
That is so cool!
I couldn't see it until I clicked on it, and there it was, this big eye just staring at me! *S*
Great choice for the hunt.
Mine's up too!
Happy Saturday!
What an interesting place and the window is perfect for the theme.
What a cute house!
Thanks for stopping by mine :)
Great shot and what a neat house!
Leadville has some of the most beautiful scenery in the whole country. I've never figured out why the town hasn't thrived ... oh wait, maybe it has something to do with those mountain passes. Your picture is great.
I've never been part of a physical scavenger hunt - must have been fun.
The bike is hot!
Safe travels to you and thanks for visiting,
Frances
What an awesome picture for this weeks theme.
You know -- you are living my dream. Maybe one of these days I will get a motorcycle and travel around the country and take pictures of the cool things I see...
Have a wonderful and blessed weekend.
That is an interesting way to make a house unique. The scavenger hunt sounds like it was a lot of fun. I would love to do something like that...maybe I can start one for Texas. Have a great weekend!
Talk about looking out your window!
how cool! something different. thanks for the visit. =)
Oh that is so different! lol I am so glad I clicked on the photo, that eye is wild! lol
what a cool way to spend an afternoon and what a cool window :)
Oh that is sooo cool! Thanks for stopping by mine. That's neat that you live so close to chapel.
Charming house and photo....the house has lots of character. Never been to Colorado...Need to get out that way someday.

Scavanger hunts were real fun among bikers in the old days, now they have been replaced by the popular poker runs. I would like to have some more scavanger hunts though.
