Growing up in Arizona: 120 sucks but whatever.
Growing old in Texas: Furiously googling real estate in Wyoming.
Today's it's too damned hot googling target, what's Sioux Falls, SD like…
I’ll be furiously googling Colorado Springs starting tomorrow.
Colorado Dreamin’
On such a summer's day.
@paul I live in Colorado Springs. Happy to answer any questions! It’s a weird place, not Portland weird, but different weird.
@paul Hmm. It’s developed in some strange ways. Prior to the evangelical move here in the 80s, it was actually a fairly moderate, artsy, smallish community. So there are a lot remnants of that heritage still around. The military bases create a third community that doesn’t neatly fit into arts/patrons or evangelicals. So there’s a fair amount of tension that creates some interesting community situations and conversations.
@paul I live in a part of town that has a good mix of folks and has some of the best ethnic food options and variety around. There are plenty of outdoor activities of all sorts so if you’re into that stuff you’ll have all the options.
@nathanwillers I'm basically into sitting outside when its not 105+.
@paul @nathanwillers also happy to answer questions about Denver. I live in Wheat Ridge and it's lovely
@paul yeah, we have a lot of that. Sun is intense here because of altitude (6500 ft give or take) but it cools into the 60s or 50s every night and evening deck hangs are lovely.
