Proving Ground Cafe - A Coffee Shop & Bakery in Leadville, Colorado

Cafe February 2006 - I was in Leadville, Colorado today I visited the Provin Ground Bakery & Cafe on the main avenue. Leadville is noteworthy for being over 10,000 feet above sea level, nearly two miles above sea level.
Apparentely the building has some historic significance. Notice the old brick walls too. It's a really cozy kind of place, and check out that old bike hanging above. :)
They have a very good variety of bakery choices. I personally love the egg & bacon biscuits, and their loaves of sourdough bread are reasonably priced.
There's a nice sitting area that gets a lot of sunlight too.

And there is a really comfy Archie Bunker seat and leg rest.

There I am reading the Denver Post ... and check out the funky ranch that was in the newspaper. ;)
