I was born in Glenwood Springs. I still have family in CO, but they're scattered east of the front range now.
Pan Ams coming up
- Thread starter nerfstate
- Start date
So you think Gwiz still has a little left in the tank??
I wonder if Dhesi has ever beat him before
I love glenwood springs. I spent a lot of my high school years causing havoc at the hot springs pool in town. Nothing to do in gypsum so everyone went to glenwood
I have few memories of Glenwood when I still lived there, but the pool is definitely one of them. I've been back a handful of times since missing. Last time was to ski Sunlight and then soak in the hot pool It was awesome.
I was in NM near the texas border and it was very similar to the terrain in the texas panhandle. Is the CO/NM border different terrain?
I would like to retire to the south after the kids graduate but need to decide between the midwest south of Tx, NM, Az or South Carolina, GA, FL south......
Where about, brochacho? I’m up at 83 and Hodgen.
Retirement home: 15 years. Cave Creek or Oro Valley AZ for me.
Carpool to nationals next year!
I probably saw you on the news protesting the planned apartment complex! I was here in 2012. Lived south of woodman east of 25. Even from there, it was a scary fire.
Never been to northeastern NM. When my wife and I drove back to CO after grad school, we came up through southern NM, via Carlsbad (the National Park is really cool), Roswell, and then Santa Fe. We’ve spent a lot of time in Santa Fe, Taos, Abiquiu and the Valles Caldera area over the years.
New Mexico is a slightly warmer Colorado with peaks that are a small bit lower. Good skiing, good mountain biking. Great fly fishing. Much emptier. Volcanoes.
Nah, not us. I’m not going to tell people where they can or can’t live. Our HOA had something about that in the monthly newsletter and I thought it was a bit out of line. We’ve got dozens of houses with pine trees or Gambel oak brushing up against them, ready to go up like a torch, but they’re worried about the prospect of apartments a mile away?
We were up in Fort Collins at my wife’s parents house when the Cameron Peak fire was burning. It was snowing ash for weeks. My BIL’s folks live up near Estes Park and the fire made it to their property line, hit a creek and stopped. 200,000+ acres burned, and a 10ft wide creek and a bit of wet meadow/marsh saved them.
Next thing you know they will be discussing their favorite granola.
Since Pan Ams are over, I'll play along.
What strain? While I'm still a novice compared to my college days, I find myself to be more of a fan of the sativa dominant strains these days. I like a good pick me up. Durban Poison had me on point for 8 hours after just 1 vape hit.
Hmm--too much of a novice myself. I was just going for "the most Colorado thing ever" and yogurt-covered dank-nuggs in granola sounded about right ;-)
