Hello!

I just want to say that Colorado is beautiful. I've never been here before. I'm working in Fort Collins this week. Driving to work all I see are the Rocky Mountains. I wish I had time to explore. By the time I leave work at the end of the day it's dark. I soo wanted to not work today and just keep driving towards the mountains. Maybe next time, if I get to come this way, I'll add a day or two on my trip so I can explore.

I just wanted to share.

Have a great day everyone!

Carolyn
Are you an organ, tissue and eye donor for your state? Did you know one person can save or enhance the lives of up to 75 people. The # of people waiting for organs in the US would overflow the University of Michigan football stadium. It's the biggest in the country. Will seat over 109,000.

Yes, Colorado is a beautiful state!  You and Pat may need to plan a ride out there sometime and maybe we could even join you!  :cooldude:

That would be awesome Lori. 

I'm finding it hard to keep my eyes on the road when driving because the mountians are everywhere. It's sunny and clear here  today. Should have records temps in the upper 70s.

I was at some conference a while back... Anaheim I think... I had some free time, and drove off into the Sierra Madre mountains... Probably would
be a good place to ride motorcycles...

Gotta agree 100% Carolyn. And you aint far at all from Rocky Mtn. Nt'l Park.
Took these pics there in August



You will love yourself if you make time to go there next time you work in Ft. Collins  :cooldude:
Of course you'll have to make sure the park or any mtn passes you want to see are open. Many close in winter.

Welcome to Ft.Collins Carolyn. Where at  in FC are you? I live at the bottom of Horsetooth resevoir. You should take a ride up there even if it's
dark, you can see the whole town from up there. Just take a ride around the resevoir it's not far at all.

Ronnie,

Awesome pictures!

GREENDRAGON,
I've been working at near the  entersection of Link and Mulberry. Larimer Bank of Commerce.  Staying over on E. Harmoney.  Looks like I'll have to take that drive to Horsetooth next trip. My flight leaves really early in the morning. I'll be heading to Denver about 5 AM.

I guess I should have posted earlier in the week. I bet you never tire of the beauty. I did hear the area had up to 2 feet of snow last week. So, gald it was mostly gone this week. The weather has been great.

I love this club because there are "family" members everywhere.

Take care,
Carolyn

Indeed it is, Carolyn.  And what you can see from FC is just scratching the surface.  I thank the Lord every time I drive out of my subdivision and see Pikes Peak and the Front Range peaks. 

Definitely plan to visit our beautiful state and tour the mountain roads and enjoy the breath-taking scenery.
