picture is veiw from our back yard after T-storm.

The view makes me homesick [not really] I grew up in Limon many many many yrs ago and still think that CO is the most beautiful state in the Country. [even or maybe ESPECIALLY the plains]

I DO however agree that the health care here is NOT what it should be....my argument with Desertwhatzizname is about him making imaginary QUOTES attributed to the American Medical Association.

I feel that my health care has been outstanding....but I took the time to select my doctors and to follow their orders.....possibly health care is shakey here because so many people wait until it's critical.....just an observation.....

I like the greenery, the wide open spaces, the rainbow, but where are the mountains??

Washington State and British Colombia is very nice also. I read that Seattle was one of the most literate cities in the US. Only bad part is the constant bombardment of rain! I hate the rain!

but where are the mountains??

The rainbow was toward the east. The mountains are west of us.
This is the view west from Colorado Springs.

Most people think of Colorado as being all MOUNTAINS where, in fact, over half is great plains

Ever watch the movie Dumb and Dumber? I kinda figured that out when they were going to Aspen..lol

Yup - good friends have a place in the Sangria de Cristo Mountains. Absolutely one of the most beautiful places I have ever been... I would not live there on a bet. Like to visit though as it is beautiful. My view of much of Colorado. Beautiful place to visit...but a hard place to live.

the problem is that only places that have low crime, pollution, traffic and other problems are much smaller or not in US. who would want to live in Canada or Alaska?
