Looks like Colorado doesn't it? 
It's absolutley beautiful. We were there for three days while on our 3 weeks in Pakistan. August 2008
The area behind them is where an arcade is. When I was little it's where the kids treasure house was and where you could get the lightest and best sopapillas, to take home.
Everyone says Casa Bonita's food is awful and that you go for the fun and the atmosphere. True, if you are used to really good Mexican food, Casa Bonita will disappoint BUT if you are currently living far from the Mexican border and even the Mexican restaurants where you are screw up a cheese enchilada .. Casa Bonita is good .. and it's always fun
Casa Bonita is more than a South Park episode, it's real!

The cave
Some one up there is going into the pool down there.
It's always been this way. Even when I was a kid. Except back then they had diners in the splash zone.

They have hourly plays on the stage. And someone is going to wind up in the "drink." There are also cliff divers.

There was some forest fire somewhere (I can't remember where) that was making everything hazy. This is the view from one of the mountains peaks in Evergreen, CO. I spent a lot of time here as a child - and camped out here when a teen.

Cherokee Ranch and Castle in Sedalia, CO
Though Tweet Kimball was a big Republican and I believe Ronald Reagan stayed here (or she stayed at the Reagan White House) it's still a very nice place to visit and have tea (they have afternoon teas open to the public and tours). It is also a working ranch, still, even though Tweet died 10 years ago. She was noted for bringing Santa Gertrudis cattle from Texas to Colorado, and raising prized bulls. Her favorite bull is buried here and there is a monument to him.
While sitting on the veranda you can hear cattle mooing on the property.
