Enjoyed the video! And especially loved seeing McNally’s first outing. I don’t think you showed too much of the new puppy. We loved watching him! Thanks!
Thank you much @Robin McCune he was just so cute seeing so much for the first time we couldn't help but keep the camera on him haha I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
I lived here in the 70's. The Arcade still amazes me, it hasn't changed. In fact, the biggest change is the big new building on the main drag, I was sad to see it put in. Other than that Manitou hasn't changed much since the 70's. The best time to be there is after all the tourist season is over. The surrounding countryside is the best.
Years ago it was a hot spot for hippies... Also if you mix the mineral water with kool aid it taste like soda pop. Also we use to buy the best salt water taffy there
@@russelltech7691 Thank you. One more question if you'd be so kind. How do they take to transplants? I'm from California, and I understand that outsiders aren't really welcomed, is that actually true? This is probably my biggest concern.
Nice video. Manitou Springs is brilliant! A little less dog footage and more local flavour would've been better though. Only a bit of constructive criticism, that's all. Safe travels!
I agree completely +Simon Harbuckle we loved Manitou Springs, and you are right about the dog footage as well. We'd just gotten McNally and might of gave him too much attention hahah :)
Hey +Connie Wise we are not 100% sure as of yet though we are considering getting a DNA test in the future not sure yet if we will. We know for sure he is 50% Chihuahua because his mom was a Chihuahua but we are not sure the other side. Once we find out I'll come back and update this :)
Lived there for more than a few years in the 90s. This video sucks so bad I can't begin to explain. The well-meaning dude walking around carrying his dog explaining the springs is where I had to stop. One of those things you can't unsee, but made worse by the fact that I know people in Manitou, and it's still that place for me... All my changes were there...and... Why did you do this.? It shows so little respect for the place, I just can't imagine you could be so clueless. It's years later now, I realize. You might even have kids, etc.. And days of visiting new cities like Manitou to record visits to their tourist shops are probably behind you. Good. I hope. But, really, Manitou is so much better than you.
I so love being a native and visiting Manitou Springs. So much fun!

Manitou is my favorite place when I go visit my kids in the Springs. It just has such a nice vibe, and I love the mineral water.
We couldn't agree more +Betsy Singh-Anand :) We absolutely loved our time there, I think we went back about 3 times haha
Love it..went yesterday..did incline!!! Wow!!!!Ty for posting all your fun info!!!!
Now worries +Gypsy Chick! How was the incline? We didn't get a chance to do that as of yet, but would really like too.
Mountain Modern Life it was super fun and hard but the view was ammmaaazzzz..bucket list 😀

Nice place to buy a T-Shirt. Miss it.
Thanks! I'm wanting to visit Colorado Springs and would love to check this place out for myself
It’s a cool little town. Used to go here all the time as a kid. So it’s memories.
Thanks for this! Exactly what I was looking for. My dog and I are doing a quick trip down there and I know where to stop and shop now!
No worries at all +Brandi Murphy let us know how the trip goes :)
Conheci Manitou , adorei esse lugar, muitas lojas, enfim, foi muito legal, quando puder estarei ai.

That's awesome +Linda Loar, I never even thought of mixing it with something. Also I think it's still got a bit of the hippy blood left :)
Oooopppss. Avoided a ticket. Mcnally is well trained. =)
haha we got really lucky I think. He's getting there ;)
we have a Rudy's here in Round rock tx.....Not bad at all...
I use to live here.
Did you like living there? I'm being relocated to the Springs area for work and Manitou looks more my style than the city.
@@cyrusblackwood33 Loved living there. Way better than Colorado springs.

Not to be a jerk but are there allot of good dispensaries?
Yes @Chris Dat -Membaaa?-
McNally is precious! What breed is he?
Hey +Connie Wise we are not 100% sure as of yet though we are considering getting a DNA test in the future not sure yet if we will. We know for sure he is 50% Chihuahua because his mom was a Chihuahua but we are not sure the other side. Once we find out I'll come back and update this :)
if I sit down..............do i get an appetizer? my first Rudy's was in Del Rio, Texas..........yes, very good.
hahaha It was very good, once I added the house sauce it took it to the next level!
10 springs
not 8
Drinking game...when dude says "actually"
hahaha @Bryan Yingst we don't want people getting too drunk now :)
@@Mountainmodernlife In all serious...Loved the info on the Library's seeds. What an awesome program.
@Bryan Yingst it really is a great system :)
Fact: Did you know that "Manitou' means GOD in some Canadian Native American languages?
