I do understand remember I'm just a "Hose Jockey". ;D The price for house and acreage isn't that bad when you compare it to some places.

Yea, but look at the acreage.  I have a friend who has a place in that area (Spanish Springs) and she has about fifteen or twenty acres and her home sits up on a mountain too.  It overlooks all the lights of the city and the casinos, at night and several members of this site have been there, too.  But the land.........nothing is there but rattlesnakes gophers (to keep the snakes alive) and a few homless looking jack rabbits.  No trees, or foilage of any kind that's taller than your ankles. [smiley=nixweiss.gif]  Winter's are miserable cold (all your vehicles are 4x4 or AWD) and you better have a snow plow or blade to put on the front of your truck........windy beyond belief and summers in the triple digits.  Yep, you get all four seasons there. ;D

Funny you mention that, The wife and I are looking for land in the Grand Junction are now...

Yep.  I was in Grand Junction after my Colorado Springs foray.  I got so hooked I even went over to the local elementary and high schools to check them out (I have children).  I still remember the High School principal.  She and her husband had moved there to escape Houston (I was escaping Atlanta) so she totally understood.  I'd have to look at a map to remeber specific area but the downtown was inviting, and housing was reasonable.  Big mountains and snow just to the east, vast desert to the west.  Nice place.  You Colorado guys are lucky.

With a little effort, you could be one of us!!!

Stop, you're killing me. :'(

Alright, I had to go get the map to remember specifics about Grand Junction.  I remember taking a day and driving southeast to Delta, then up through Cedaredge and Mesa, past Powderhorn ski area and back to town through Clifton.  This would be a nice ride.  The pass over Grand Mesa is open rolling forest and field, laced with snowmobile trails.  I also went out to Fruita and took the loop road through Colorado National Monument (beautiful).  Looked at some houses that backed up to the National Monument--talk about a back yard!

Back to Colorado Springs, when I was there the suburbs were going out to Black Forest.  Manitou Springs was really neat and I used to go running in Garden of the Gods and around the lake at the Olympic Park (name?)  I also took in a few Sky Sox games--that's where I discovered how much fun minor league baseball is.

Ahhhhhh, Colorado.

One of my favorite hideouts in the world is Lake City.  Ever hear of it?  One of my classmates in Grad School was a CSU alum from Denver and she hadn't.

And--I asked the wife to marry me on Boreas Pass.

Alright, enough pain already.  Take care of Colorado for me.  I'll get out there again sometime.
