About this postcard

A man in a suit and hat and a woman in a long coat stand on a curving path beside a lake, with a metal railing at the water's edge. Across the water, a wooded hillside rises toward a mountain under a blue sky, with autumn foliage in red and green. The printed text on the back identifies the scene as Stratton Park, Colorado Springs, at the entrance of North and South Cheyenne Canons under the shadow of Cheyenne Mountain.
